Hey,
  Sorry I wasn't very clear on my question.  I have made a stack (Stack 1)
that copies a card from any stack running in the background (Stack 3),
pastes it on another stack that was just made (Stack 2), and sends stack 2
over the network where the card that was added to any stack that intercepts
it.  It is made to be able to add any card to any stack.  The thing is a
card may have a handler in it that is triggered, that refers to an object on
another card.  Because it has been seperated from the rest of the stack, it
can't find that object and it causes errors.  Once it is inserted into the
new stack it should stop causing errors, but until then I need to lock the
messages to the stack holding the card so it doesn't trigger anything.  I
can't really predict what handlers will be triggered, or what the errors are
going to be so I can't just intercept them beforehand.  Any ideas?
