Ugly stack filename problem after Save as!

2 things in play here. There is the FILENAME of the stack file, and then there is the STACK NAME of the stack file. Save As does not rename the stack. Try opening the stack name of the saved as file, renaming the stack, closing and removing it from memory, then opening the original. If the name of the stack is the NEW NAME, you have problems. If not, then you are just confusing the stack name with the file name.
