Hi Joe,
Mainly :-)
1. Substacks are embedded into the same file as the main stack:
distribution is safer (their *exact* location is known :-)
2. Substacks are loaded into memory when you open the mainstack: you
have not to check where there are... and can refer to them without
*precaution*.
3. All handlers (and functions) you put into the main stack script
are available anywhere in any script of any control in the substacks:
you don't have to repeat any code. Safer and easier to maintain.

While reading the string of comments I was interested in the newbie
question
about substacks. I'm also a newbie so I need some help in this area
too.
What are the advantages of using a substack rather than just
starting another
mainstack? I use several mainstacks because if one becomes
corrupted I can
replace it easier from a backup. I realize Revolution is far more
stable than
HyperCard was, but I've learned it's always a good idea to
religiously backup.
Maybe if I had some examples of how a substack is superior to another
mainstack it would help me understand the advantage.
Best Regards from Paris,
Eric Chatonet.
