I have no knowledge of this but my immediate guess would be to use the ask command and answer dialogue box, set a variable to true or false and the variable contains the top secret password? This is just an off the cuff thought, have not looked into it myself though.

Chris, you're getting the hang of it. :)

Yes, see the "ask password" command in the Dictionary.

simply use the message box:
set the password of stack "your stack here" to "secret password"
Save the stack and that's it! :D

Hint: This does nor work with the Community Edition of Livecode!
