Help! I'm stuck

Matthias:
I see that openstack and closestack messages are inhibited during application build, using:

on closeStack
	if the mode of stack “revStandaloneProgress” > 0 then
		exit closeStack
	end if
end

So, before I start adding this to all openstack, closestack, scripts of my 12 stacks, I'm’ wondering if I could mess up the build process by by-passing some of the scripts in these handlers. Is there any way to tell more precisely what is causing the problem? Any recommendations on strategy? Should I just change one stack at a time and look for changes in the error window, or just change all them and wonder what affect that would have on the integrity of the build process?

Also, opencard scripts are also called when a stack in launched and I wonder if those need to be escaped too.

Best,
Bill
