Hello,
	How can I tell if my windoid has already been opened by HyperCard?
I would rather just bring my existing windoid to the front than to open 
another.  I guess that I need to store some data between calls of the XCMD,
I could use the refcon of the window as a handle, (macTutor Feb, 91) but this
just gives me a new window record as I open a second copy of the windoid.

Any code or pointers to manuals would be helpful.

thanks in advance  (feel free to e-mail or post)
J.R.
