If you do have thousands of members in the stack, or even hundreds, it will make a big difference in speed in how you program it. Som e people come to the premature conclusion that HyperCard is too slow to use in large stacks. From various HC books you can learn (or even from reading this newsgroup often) how to access information throughout a stack without greatly slowing down a script. I and many others in the group can also help anyone plan a large stack for speed.
