Hi Cal,
The templateStack is something that only exists in memory. A
templateStack is only displayed when you make a new stack. A substack
can exist both in memory and on disk and you don't need to make a new
stack to display it.
What you will use, depends on what you want to do. Perhaps you tell a
little more about that?

There comes a time in the use of LiveCode when you run across the concept of
a template stack or a substack as a entry/data display form. The questions
that you might be faced with are:
Which one should you use?
Which is the most efficient as a form(date entry) etc.?
How much memory does each type take up?
What are the difference in speed?
I'm sure I could go on and on and probably you could too.
I'm looking for some direction on these and other questions like these and I
would expect that the answers are hidden somewhere in this forum.
If you can "shed any light" on these perplexing questions please take the
time to respond.
Cal
