Hi Gregory,
The following script is slightly less verbose and uses the effective
filename (see Klaus' message). Make sure to put this script at card
level and not at stack level.
on openStack
global dataFilePath,partsFilepath
-- set some relative file paths
set the itemDel to slash
put (item 1 to -2 of the effective filename of this stack) & \
"/Data/" into dataFilePath
go stack "Another Stack" --> sends an openStack message!
end openStack
Best regards,
Mark Schonewille

Hello everyone,
I have the following openStack handler in a main stack. I use it
to set two globals which hold paths to folders that I want to use
for back ups and such.
on openStack
global dataFilePath, partsFilePath
-- Set some relative file paths
get the fileName of this stack
set the itemDelimiter to "/"
delete the last item of it
put it & "/Data/" into dataFilePath
go to stack "Another Stack"
end openStack
Seems that when I declare the global dataFilePath in substacks, I
just "/Data/" instead of the full path. What gives?
Gregory
