My setup is Rev 2.6 on a G4 notebook under Mac OS 10.3.2.
The problem: A very simple stack with one field containing text and
another field for search purposes. The text is Chinese and so is, of
course, the word typed into the search field. The script of the latter
uses a returnInField handler
Alex,
I just retested my open .rev stack accessing custom properties in my
standalone, so I know this works. It was only Dreamcard that I am
uncertain about. I hate to assume but I guess if it works in Runtime
Revolution this way it will work in Dreamcard too? I am thinking of

Alex,
Your ascii figures didn't translate very well in my email app.
Sorry. The first figure was (as I think you guessed) a "+" with one

Modal dialog windows prevent scripts that are not in the modal

It's two loops, admittedly, but unless it's a very big array, it'd be

Hi Xavier,
I've just tested this on WinXP (on NTFS) by:

2) setting it's filename property to 'FooBar.rev'
3) saving the stack using 'save stack'
This results in a stack saved to disk with the filename 'FooBar.rev' in the
defaultFolder.

It sounds like you're looking for a feature that doesn't yet exist (or
at least I'm not aware of it). I could see having a property that

looping, like this:
set the repeatDirection to "descending" -- or "down", "reverse"
