I, too, changed the look of MC's ask and answer and embedded them in  
my standalones. I found a general solution to this problem that I've  
been happy with for a long time:

- Rename your custom ask/answer dialogs to something line "MyAsk" and  
"MyAnswer" and make them substacks of your "standalone" stack.
- In the "startup" handler of your standalone, put statements like:
          if not(there is a stack "ask") then set the name of stack  
"myAsk" to "ask"

This means that while you're in the IDE, you'll see the Rev/MC ask  
and answer dialogs, but in your standalone your custom dialogs will  
appear. No conflicts. Ever!
