Then PLEASE could someone just tell me how I save a Standalone Stack 
PLEASE!!! I've been asking questions about this all day and I'm just 
going round and round and round in circles.

All I want to do is to save the settings of any controls if and only 
if the User Presses ok. I would like this to work as a Standalone and 
under the RunRev IDE, but would be happy if it just worked as a 
Standalone at this stage.

Maybe RunRev isn't the right tool for this after all, I mean if it's 
this hard just to save the contents of a Checkbox!

Why doesn't the documentation say anything about this?

Yours an experated RunRev Newbie!

Thanks
