Interesting... will Rev also find the stack if it's not a substack (as you suggested)? In this case we would need the local filepath I assume?

Thanks.

So the difference (this question for anybody I guess) between

1. put there is a stack "revdatagridlibrary.rev" into theStackIsNowInMemory

and

2. start using

is that #1 doesn't open it so it's more memory-efficient?
