Hi Michel,Thank you Pierre for your nice proposition,
What i expect is that this problem could be relative to the way the Rev/MC 2.5 engine works under MacOSX to reopen 1.1.1 stacks issues, not in about your stack it-self.
If needed, i can test your stack under Linux, where there are never
problems in reopening such kind of stacks. If your problem don't happen,
here, you will then have to fill a request to bugzella. Else i will have
an eye to your code. If you want, send me the stack in a ".zip" or ".gz"
and i will let you know how it goes.

In fact I prepared a limited version ( 3 stacks) of my application and tested it before to send it to you.
Surprise, it was working on version 2.0., and ... there was no reason to send it to you.
I returned to the original application which has around 50 identical stacks and was working perfectly since 10 years on Hypercard first and after on
version 1.1.1. and still now ...
These identical stacks are based on a unique start using stack storing all the handlers and each one has the minimum, just a function, within "on preopenstack", "on openstack" ....etc referring to the start using stack.
Among the fifty identical stacks, I found that 2 were refusing to open (those who were the most used of course)
You must know that the difficulties were not limited to the impossibility to open these stacks, in fact each time I passed through these stacks it was followed (sometimes with a delay) by the crash of the Revolution distribution which refused to reopen after and stayed freezed.
Thank to that I had the chance to became one of the best re-loaders (perhaps in the world) of Revolution version 2 with 300 to 400 reloads in 3 months.
I asked the technical support for help but they are so slow ... I am still waiting an answer since near two weeks.
By chance (after 3 months I am not so sure it is chance ..) I noticed that these 2 stacks were accepting to open when using:
- lock messages
- open stack ....
The way was found, I rewrote the handlers to avoid to use on preopenstack, openstack and closestack.
And it works on version 2.00...
I am happy of course on one side, on the other I am hungry for these days and days lost.
I am obliged to think that Revolution is far to be as ready as is it said and I am afraid with the coming version 2.1.
Yes I bought it ..... because it was one potential solution to my problems.
Thank you Pierre and also Jan who tried to help me ... and good luck to those coming from Hypercard or from version 1.1.1. Who knows ?

PS: I have no possibility to be to Apple Expo in september, it is a pity ... Next year probably.
I was there last year and met Kevin Miller and Frederic Rinaldi ...
