Eric,
Thanks for your quick response.
Unfortunately your suggestion didn't work. I tried it and also setting the style of "myDialogBox" stack to Model just prior to the modal stack "myDialogBox" statement.
The script did not recognize the stack as a container!?
I'm nearly at wits end on this problem.
Does anyone have documentation on setting up Dialog Boxes and/or a working example of a Dialog Box use similar to mine?
It's surprising Rev. doesn't provide more info on this important GUI feature. I hope it's just a matter of my not looking in the right place rather than omission?
Thanks or any assistance.
Ralph
