Strange. If your mainstack handler is in preOpenStack have you tried it in preOpenCard or vice versa?
Or try this kludge. Move your mainstack handler to 'openCard'. Change your current preOpenStack/Card script to simply move the stack off screen, that's it. At the end of your mainstack's new openCard handler, lockscreen, move the mainstack to on screen, unlock screen. Hopefully then at the end of the preOpenStack/Card script the screen will unlock, your openCard handler will send your updateme handler and the screen will update as you proceed. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
