Thanks. I read this list every day and often marvel at how lucky I am to be
using liveCode which has the resources of the list, people that don't mind
pointing out obvious answers to lifetime neophytes like me.

Well that is odd. It seems to work now. I tested this in the IDE, which quit
when I hit CMD-Q without popping a dialog, but worked a peach as a standalone.
Now it's working in the IDE as well!
I blame Gremlins!

Have you looked at trapping the shutdownRequest message?

Bob,
As I said, 'quit' is non-negotiable. Trap a closeStackRequest in the main
stack's card script and offer the option to abort...
--| Main stack, card script
on closeStackRequest
checkQuit
end closeStackRequest
--| Main stack, stack script
on checkQuit

Ok I have determined that intercepting the closeStackRequest or the
shutDownRequest in the IDE does NOT prevent quitting the IDE. However,
intercepting closeStackRequest DOES prevent a standalone from quitting if not
passed! Intercepting closeStackRequest, while I am sure it would prevent

Hi Hugh. CloseStackRequest does not prevent quitting in the IDE. It appears
nothing does. I suspect however that it would work in a standalone. I will test
that shortly.

It looks like this is meant for a standalone only. Quitting the IDE does not
seem to send a shutdownRequest to the stack script.

'quit' cannot be terminated once issued. See 'closeStackRequest' instead of
'closeStack'.

How do you get an answer dialogue to halt the quit process? If you have a
"close stack" handler and it has a "do you really want to quit?" dialogue
and you quit the livecode application you

Exactly. That is what I'm trying to do. Can that be done and tested in the
IDE?

Maybe this doesn't work in the IDE but is possible in a saved application?

How do you get an answer dialogue to halt the quit process? If you have a
"close stack" handler and it has a "do you really want to quit?" dialogue
and you quit the livecode application you see that answer message flash for
a second but it doesn't halt the quit process.
