Selecting a Stack

[JB]

I juste tried it with the ask command and it
did not work properly.  Maybe the message
box and files dialog become the editable
window and when they close the card is
the editable window while the answer and
ask commands do not become editable
windows and the messages are not sent
properly.  Either that or the message box
is passing a message the others are not
could be what is happening.

I can make it work so it is not a big problem
for me.
