Richard,
Thanks for the infor and I will re-read the article on the message path.

FrontScript are handy, but they're available for a very specific
purpose:  to catch ALL messages BEFORE objects get them.

That is exactly what I'm trying to achieve and it works like a charm except for this complication of messages from IDE stacks getting caught in these front scripts. I'm able to carry out some standard logic for the type of message and then pass it on to the same message handler for the object itself. I could be wrong but I can't think of another way to do that without extra coding.

Since they work so well for me, I'm reluctant to abandon front scripts but I have to find a way to figure out whether messages are coming from IDE stacks or mine. I notice that, with a couple of exceptions, all the IDE stacks start with "rev" so it might be fairly simple to check for IDE messages.
