The stack stored in myCallingStack is the stack that called this  
function. I have checked this, anyway myCallingStack is not used  
until after the crash.

The stack referred to as "me" is the library stack, e.g. the same  
stack that the above code is executing in. It is intially loaded  
using "start using", then when a particular function is called. I  
want the stack to be displayed and to become the top most window. The  
keyword "me" *always* refers to the object that the current script is  
executing in.

Any other ideas?
