If you're trying to close and remove the stack that's current running the mouseUP script, you *should* be able to just say "close this stack" in the script of your mouseUp handler and it should work. However if it doesn't, send a custom command to the same object ("me") in a short time (like 100 milliseconds), and then immediate do an "exit to top", which will get you out of the mouseUp handler you're in. Something like this: on mouseUp -- do a bunch of stuff -- if the condition is met (I'm imagining the 'tCondition' variable starts off -- false and when the condition is met it gets set to true if tCondition is true then send "closeMe" to me in 100 milliseconds exit to top end if -- more stuff that could happen if the condition wasn't met end mouseUp on closeMe close this stack end closeMe > I need to delete files in a folder.

Yes, that's the best way (switch the defaultFolder to the folder you want to delete files from, put "the files" into a variable, switch your defaultFolder back to where it was, then loop through the list of files in the variable identifying the one(s) you want to delete, then delete them).
