If I understand correctly, instead of these two lines, use

put the short name of this stack into stackname

Also, another thing to watch out for in transitioning from HyperCard to MetaCard is 
the way you script the environment in HyperCard:

>   domenu "Open stack..."

In a built application there won't be an "Open stack..." menu (unless you create it). 
Better to use the built-in commands:

answer file "Choose a stack:" with filter "MSTK"
if the result is empty then open it  --etc.
