Answer with messages?

Hi,

Is there a way for background processes to continue while the user responds to an "answer" dialog box? I have a clock running in the background that stops when the answer dialogue box pops up. I have included 'with messages' in the clock script.

Grant.

No, I believe the answer dialog is blocking but you could create your own non-blocking dialog box by using a sub stack.
