Hi Slava, I have similar problems once in a while. Often, I do this:
on preOpenStack hide this stack // do some very important stuff here readPrefs -- (e.g. read registration data) // and send a command in x millisecs send "initialise" to me in 0 millisecs end preOpenStack on initialise put the seconds into mySecs go stack "Splash" in new window // the splash stack contains everything // to set itself up // now we can set up our controls send "foo" to btn 2 put url "http://bla.com" into fld 5 // has the user clicked Splash away? if "Splash" is among the lines of the openStacks then wait until (the seconds - theSecs > 5) or not \ ("Splash" is among the lines of the openStacks) with messages close stack "Splash" end if end initalise Of course, many variations are possible. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 What does that error mean?
