It seems to be correct to assume that getting a property from a stack whose destroystack property has been set to true does not cause that stack to stay in memory. I tried the following in the message box:

answer file ""; get the bla of stack it; put the openstacks

and the selected stack file is not among the lines of the openstacks. (Dave, I think your reply in this matter is not correct, unless I overlook something).

If I try this (using the short name and not the file name):

on mouseUp
  put "/Users/dave/Desktop/proptest.rev" into tStackFile

  put the myProp of stack tStackFile into field 1
  put the short name of stack  tStackFile into tShortname
  put cr & there is a stack tShortname after field 1
  delete stack tStackFile
  put cr & there is a stack tShortname after field 1

end mouseUp

The first "there is a stack tShortname" return true, and the second returns false. So it would seem to be still in memory until you delete it. I think in some way that this is logical, as how would the engine know when to release it.

I think Jacque's comment that only stacks that have been through the normal "open" procedure appear in the openStacks is correct.

Cheers
Dave
