Hi Dave,

First of all : these "Save" dialog boxes will only
happen in the IDE ; so either demo a stand-alone app
or suspend the developmetn environment during the
demo.
If for some bizarre reason you have to demo inside the
IDE and people wouldn't accept seeing this basic
question, you'll have to change the global
'gREVStackStatus[tShortName]' where tShortName is the
short name of your stack, so that it no longer equals
"edited".
But I would advise against it, as tinkering the IDE
data is not a good idea.
