The DG and the field are in a substack. The field saves just fine. The DG will 
not even allow itself to be written to.


My button script says, in essence, set the dgText of myDG to random(99), and 
put random(99) into fld myField.
The field gets a new number, the DG just sits there. Of course, the IDE stack 
works fine.


That is why I wondered whether the issue was saving or not. Since the DG data 
does not change, maybe in fact it IS saved, but since it is not ever changed, I 
misinterpreted the problem.

Unfair compared to what? 
 
AFAIK no modern OS lets an executable modify itself.
