take care

Re: open and close stack command

Hey Klaus...

That is a nice work around regarding putting the preOpenStack & openStack handlers on the first card... We live and learn, I never knew that.. but I don't want you taking all the credit as I bet your cat told you about this :D

be well

Re: Opening a substack

Hi exhuesden...

If you wanted to put something into say a field in the substack before you have opened it or if it is not on top....
put "ABCDE" into fld 1 of stack "<whatever you call it >"

To open a sub stack....
open stack "<whatever you call it >"

hope this helps, be well

Re: Saving data entered into a stack

Hi... The main stack of your standalone cannot save changes to itself... but a substack can... So, how about using your main stack as a 'splash screen'.... which opens when you open your app...
