Joe, (It's Chipp with 2 p's) First of all, you can't save data in a standalone. I assume you already know this. You need to store your data in a stack or file OUTSIDE the standalone. If what you're after is the 'Save As..' dialog, read up on ask file. There are two parts to Save As. The first

Chipp, (sorry about the name. I said I'm having vision problems, smile) Thanks, I was beginning to come to the same conclusion; which seems to indicate that in order for any application to be able to Save anything, it must create documents apart from itself that are then used to load up

Ken, I did create a dialog in my project that asks the user if he/she wants to save. I have Save as a file command and Save as a dialog I created the user quits. Charles Szasz [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ use-revolution mailing list

How do you script for saving so that when you save from the File menu and then quit an application you do not get a save dialog? Charles Szasz [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url

Ken, The question then arises: assume that we keep track for instances in which the program has been changes and activate the Save menu item accordingly, are all the cards with their fields and buttons and graphics written to a saved copy at that time? Or must we implement those changes

Thanks, Chip; but my preference is to do a Save A Copy As..., but have yet to find the proper dialog leading up to that. As I've mentioned several times, here and on Macinstruct, I feel this is a more important type save; even in the IDE. Of course, I have yet to find a fix for compiling

Joe, I use altArchive, one of my altPlugins, to save iterative copies of my stacks. It saves the original stack as well as a copy of the stack with a serialized suffix (001,002,003) in a folder called archive in the same directory of the stack. This way you always backup your existing work, and
