External files in Standalones

[William Prothero]

Marty:
Thanks so much for your patience and help. I wasn’t worried about finding stacks because all of my project stacks are substacks. But, this situation will occur, I know. The buy site is very useful.

I think I have it now.
Best,
Bill

If you look in the Standalone settings, you'll see that there's a place to indicate which stacks to include and another place to indicate non-stack files to include. I would set up a folder on your hard drive and organize as you wish, then go into the Standalone settings and let it know where things are. Then when you reference any stacks, LC knows where they are so you don't have to include the path to the stack.
