I keep a machine around with Windows 7 on it (disconnected from monitor, 
keyboard, mouse
and internet); and drag it out about once a month to test Windows 
standalone builds. It was worth
the price of a Windows OEM licence just for that as it has caught me 
once or twice in quite surprising ways.

I tried to make a standalone for Windows that would work for him.

But the ask and answer dialog do not appear on screen, I tried them 
"as sheet" but they still are missing. Clicking "enter" should, in 
theory, trigger the "OK" even if they are off screen. But that is 
also no working


I have "Search for required inclusions..." in the SA setting. 
Livecode is picking the other things required (internet lib and XML 
etc) . What about  the Answer and Answer?  But "as sheet" should 
appear in the stack window area...that  is also not working...
