Hi Dave,

put replaceText(the filename of this stack,the short name of this 
stack,"xxxxxxxxxx") into myString

Works fine here when the name of the file is the same as the name of 
the stack (disregarding the extension).
But they can be DIFFERENT and then associate these 2 references might 
not be a good idea ;-)
Best,
