Thanks Andre:  You are up late! (smile)

How does the app know where to find it?

But don't you need to do some kind of fancy path variable set up, 
parsing etc ?

put the filename of this stack into tPath
set itemdel to"/"; delete item -1 of tPath
etc. etc. etc.?

on startup
 set the externals of this stack to ("libKiosk.bundle" & cr & "libKiosk.dll")
end startup


What if you have more than one external you want to load? would it be 
like this:

set the externals of this stack to ("libKiosk.bundle" & cr & 
"libKiosk.dll" & "revBrowser.bundle"&cr&"revBrowser.dll")
