The trick he's using there is referring to the stack by it's filename 
instead of it's name. Similarly you can do "go stack filename" as well 
as "go stack name"

However, it's roughly 25% slower to use the filename form of set the 
uCData[...] of stack "filename", instead of having the stack open 
already, by "go invisible", and then referring to it like set 
uCData[...] of stack "name"

Or do you mean the syntax of "the cPropSetName[arrayKey] of stack" is 
what' you haven't been doing?
