Stack Directory?

Bonjour Domi,

Mais oui, mon ami :-)

C'est tres simple...

...
put the effective filename of this stack into fn
set the itemdel to "/"
delete item -1 of fn
put "/" after fn
...

et voila, fn now holds the actual folder.

Do this at openstack and store it in a global var or
in a custom property.

Then you can build your "high-score" string like:
...
global the_stored_directory
put xxxx into url("file:" & the_stored_directory & "the_scores.abc")
...

or with a custom prop:
...
put xxxx into url("file:" & the_stored_directory of this stack & 
"the_scores.abc")
