white "ask" and "answer" dialog box in standalone

[Jerry Daniels]

Tekpa,

I have put the following into the startUp handler in the mainstack of my
standalone:

if word 1 of the systemVersion is "NT" and word 2 of the systemVersion > 5
then
  put queryRegistry("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Colors\MenuBar") into
tColor
  answer tColor
  if tColor <> "" then
    put word 1 of tColor,word 2 of tColor,word 3 of tColor into tColor
    set the backgroundColor of this stack to tColor
  end if
end if


The answer dialog, when called in the above handler was the requisite color
gray, however, once the mainstack opened, the ask/answer dialogs were once
again white as the driven snow. I have also tried this script without the
answer dialog. Same result.

Whatever am I doing wrong?
