No problem. Just make to stacks-files, one as your main, containing the
engine, and one separate file containing everything that needs to be stored
"dynamicly".

I understand that its a rule on Windows that applications (.exe) cant modify
themselves ... and therefore not save within their own file. Hence: Store in
another stack.

For consistancy, I was told, RunRev/Metacard decided to take this Windows
rule to the Mac as well.

Best regards

Carsten
