Hi you guys out there,

It took me until 03:00 in the morning, but I couldn't  have
slept anyway. Then I had a brainwave ........

If the question about merging substacks into a mainstack
ever comes up again, follow Jims instruction
..... with one addition  (the one in CAPS) ....

------------------------------------------------------------------
First, make a copy of the independent stack. (I will call it "U2")
Open stack "U2"
Open the Main Stack you wish to marry (call it "Maine")

In the Message Box, SET THE CANTMODIFY OF STACK "U2" TO FALSE
..... if cantmodify is true, you can't select stack "U2"

Selecting  stack "U2"
..going to the Stack Inspector and using the drop down to select "Maine"

This sets the Main Stack property of "U2" to "Maine".  You're done.
------------------------------------------------------------------

Now I'm done also - and happy not to go to bed with a problem ......... 
!

Best to all from Paris (it's raining again !)

-Francis
