Hello, Hmm no answers - did I asked the wrong questions or was my explanation too complicated? The main question is, where to assign externals when using a splash stack, which becomes the executable (but doesn't needs the externals) and a main stack which stays a .rev and needs the externals. Is it enough just to put them into the properties\externals of the called main stack (rev-file) and I don't need the "binding" functionality for the externals, when building the standalone of the splash stack? Any hint welcome :) Tiemo
