Opening a tabbed group from within a script

[Gregory Lypny]

Hi Everyone,

 I have a stack with two cards, X and Y.  Card Y has a tabbed button 
that displays a different group of fields under each tab.  I have a 
script in card X that opens card Y, but I'd like card Y to display a 
particular tabbed group by default regardless of which tab had been 
clicked on previous visits to card Y.  How can I do this?

 Regards,

  Greg

RTF import and export

[Bruce Lewis]

How can you import styled text from an MS Word document to a Metacard 
field and vice versa while keeping the styles intact?

I do this in HyperCard using RTF (rich text format). There are 
various XCMD's that people have written for that purpose. I believe 
Hugh Senior, who frequents this list, wrote one (though I don't use 
it.)

Do these XCMD's work in Metacard? Is there some other way of doing it?

Thanks.

Bruce

Yes, set the passkey so that you can access the stack, then set the password
to empty.

After setting the "passkey" to access the scripts, you can then set 
the "password" to empty to remove the password protection.

Quick password question

[Leston Drake]

Hi,

Once you set a password for a stack, you have to enter that password to 
view/modify scripts each time you open the stack.
Is it possible to permanently "un-password" the stack so that you don't 
have to enter it every time? or is the password permanent?
