Joe,

First of all, you can't save data in a standalone. I assume you
already know this. You need to store your data in a stack or file
OUTSIDE the standalone.
If what you're after is the 'Save As..' dialog, read up on "ask file".
There are two parts to Save As. The first part is asking the user for
the pathname to save the file to. The second part is actually doing
the save.
Create a button:
on mouseUp
ask file "Choose a place to save your stack"
if the result is "cancel" or it is empty then exit to top
put it into tPathname
save stack "JoesStack" as tPathname
end mouseUP
This will save the stack "JoesStack" to the file specified.
