Seting an object's geometry by script

Hello Richard,

What I wanted to do is to set the geometry of an object by script and  
not writing a script that resizes objects when the stack is resized.  
Am I clear.
What I wanted to know is if an object's geometry is a sort of  
property that can be set.
If not I'll do it the way you suggested.

Thanks.
