Just playing the the Name Generator from Tactile Media
http://www.tactilemedia.com/index.html? ... rials.html

This stack has three custom properties each with say 50 custom keys.

I'd like to increase this to say 50 custom properties each with 50 customkeys.

Since I had all kinds of issues copying a test DataGrid with its template to another stack,
I'm wondering how to copy a stacks 50 custom properties each with 50 customkeys
to another stack?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There's an example about copying custompropertysets in the dictionary entry for the customproperties property.

You can get or change the value of a single custom property using array notation. For example, the following statement copies the entire set of custom properties from one card to another, changing only the custom property named "changedDate":

put the customProperties of this card into myCustomProps
put field 3 into myCustomProps["changedDate"]
set the customProperties of next card to myCustomProps

Hi Bvg,

Thanks for taking the time to reply and posting the code.
Much appreciated.

I was expecting the solution to come from a developer like the DataGrid Copy template.
And not be in the dictionary.
Information overload.


Hey Dixie,

Thanks for the sample stack.
A sample stack is worth 10 thousand words.
Very much appreciated.
