advanced scripting commands 'abort' dialogs in other advanced scripting commands

i've got a command to make a dialog with a list of choices. i've noticed that i can't use another advanced scripting command when the dialog is open. if i do then the dialog just closes as if i'd pressed ESC.
Am i dreaming or is this a real bug?

This is not a bug. This is an inherent limitation of VBA (WinWrap® Basic) as implemented in DNS. Only one script can be executed at a time. If you consider this a bug, go complain to Polar Engineering and Consulting. Nuance licenses WinWrap® Basic from them.

i would be able to use legacy scripting then?
Nope
Legacy scripting won't work either.

Does this help? I have
Does this help? I have found that advance scripting commands can call macro recorder commands using "heardword".
I also just tried starting an advance scripting command that opens a dialog, and then saying two macro recorder commands.
If the macro recorder command just includes keystrokes, then the keys are sent to the advance scripting command dialog.
If the macro recorder command in close mouse movements, the advance scripting dialog gets hidden behind any other open windows -- and so can't be accessed by the macro recorder mouse emulation.
