Do you mean the "ask" command does not work? That was your original question. I'm not sure you understood what was wrong.

Choose Standalone Settings from the File menu. In the fist General pane select the ask and answer checkboxes. Close Standalone Settings and build the app.

You must include these two selections, they are the windows for the ask and answer dialogs.

Hello Jacque

Thank's for this answer, I perused this point, but it's not really my problem. "Ask command is not into the standalone but into the livecode file launched by the standalone file.

It doesn't matter, the standalone will be open and all its substacks will be available. It is standard to put the ask and answer dialogs into the standalone, which makes them available to all stacks during the session.

Hi Jacque.

I feel me a little Shameful. :roll: :oops:
I had seen blue Checkboxes for "ask" and "answer",but had not checked "select inclusion..."
I am sorry to have bothered so much world for so little.
Thank's to everybody.

Pascal

Please don't feel bad, we all had to learn it. I should have been more specific and remembered to mention "select inclusions". I'm glad you have it working now.
