Global Properties

[Peter Haworth]

Hi Paul/Richard,
Yes it does, except that I'm trying to get hold of them in a script but
that lead me to what I need.

Looking at the code for the message box,:

get the cRevAllProperties of card "Global Properties" of stack "Message Box"

...gets them.  I'm always nervous about grabbing stuff like this out of the
IDE stacks because they could change names/locations but seems like that's
the only way for now.  I guess I could grab them once and store them away
somewhere safe in my own stack.
