Here is the problem: I have several stacks in an application. I can "protect stack" them all manually to get the effects I want (which is to have a "user mode" and a "superuser" mode). What I really want is to only have to unprotect the main stack, then have scripts that do things to the secondary stacks (like add cards). What I would like is to be able write a script that goes to the secondary stack, says 'doMenu "Protect Stack..." with CommandKey', type the password, and have the script proceed. BUT, there is no 'doMenu ... with ...' form. ('Ask password' tricks seem pointless because one can not set the userLevel up (of course)). Suggestions? Also, I have a script that cleans up and then saves a stack (with 'doMenu "Save ..'). Is there a way to override the question "do you want to overwrite Copy of foo?" thanx.
