<BR>
If the path was not specified, how would MetaCard ever find and load it?<BR>
<BR>
But of course you only need to set the property of the stack once.<BR>
And further, you can use the stack as a library stack, so you don't have to set the property in every stack that wishes to use Valentina- only the library stack.<BR>

<<Brian, but I wonder if this is 100% required ?<BR>
I have run example stack without this path to external set up.>><BR>
