Right, Eric, it's a Columbus egg, but you must consider that I cannot change
those Ids and that stack X2 and X3 are not mine and they are changing often.
So I need another solution.

Well Rob, I really doesn't understand what you means. It's not a problem of
sceen redrawing, the problem is that, as explained in my example, I cannot
load (with the expression 'set the icon of btn x to...') the image in stack
X3 if an image with the same ID is in stack X2, and I don't know how solve
this problem.

P.S. Is there anybody that can tell me how to append my messages to this
list to an existing thread, without beginning each time a new thread (I use
entourage X)?
