Desperately seeking help. iconify. uniconify. close from task bar. answer. ms reportable error?

Rev 2.1.2  win32

I've had a lot of problems with iconify, managed to solve them all except
this one. Spent nearly two very valuable days trying to get round this.  I
need to make sure a user gets a chance to save a substack (saved as a
separate file) if they minimize and then close the stack from the taskbar.

This happens with an empty stack and with just this in the stack script.

on iconifystack
answer "whatever" with  "OK"
end iconifystack

doesn't matter where the script goes - closestackrequest, uniconify.
Without answer and I just save and do some other things there's no problem -
but there is if the user didn't want to save the changes they've made.

This is for a cdrom which my client (my first paid job) has made a deal with
a magazine she writes for to review this cdrom, so there's a deadline.
Tomorrow.

Basically the only way I can solve this problem seems to be to take minimize
off the decorations - and that is not going to look good either.

Maybe someone has some ideas.

Greatly appreciated if you can help here.
