Hi Rob,

I've done this kind of thing before:

on preOpenStack
  -- first gain access to settings
  -- (assumes this is a standalone)
  put the filename of me into tPath
  set the itemDelimiter to slash
  if the platform = "MacOS" then
    delete item -4 to -1 of tPath
  else
    delete item -1 of tPath
  end if
  put "/mySettings.rev" after tPath

  -- second, make sure a 30-day time limit exists
  if the uTimeLimit of stack tPath = empty then
    set the uTimeLimit of stack tPath \
        to (the seconds + (60*60*24*30))
    save stack tPath
  end if

  -- third, check for expired time
  if the seconds > the uTimeLimit of stack tPath then
    answer "This demo has expired."
    quit
  end if

  -- keep going if all is OK
  pass preOpenStack
end preOpenStack

Are there any sample scripts showing how I should do this?

I was thinking of doing it like this
On preopenstack

IF fld "dateopened" is empty THEN

     put the long system date into fld "dateopened"

     else

*      this is where I am having trouble want to check what is in fld
"datopened" and make sure it is not more than 30 days old if it is don't
open the stack and post a message

end if

Thanks

Rob
