Forgot something here. What works if Gurobaru stack is not open is send "gimmeSomeOThatStuff" to stack "E:/users/home/rees-j/projects/hypercard/practice/Gurobaru stack.rev" (Sorry about the long line. MSW2k in Japanese doesn't seem to give me a way to type the line continuation character in Rev.) > >Does send to another stack require absolute paths when the target stack > >is not open?

The last send works because Rev opens > your stack first (it somehow finds it or it still has a copy in > memory if it was open earlier). Only when open. Sorry about the confusion. The version with the absolute path (that I forgot) is the one that finds it when the stack is closed. It would be nice to be able to use relative path, if anyone knows how. -- Joel Rees, programmer, Systems Group Altech Corporation (Alpsgiken), Osaka, Japan http://www.alpsgiken.co.jp ---------------------- "When software is patentable, anything is patentable."
