Yep your'e right.
It can control if the caption will be stored when the component is streamed
out. Hence if/will the property be set when the component is read back in.
It's just a boolean function TRUE = Store the property & vica versa.
Actually the original code example was maybe faster in this case as the
"GetText" function does a bit of work to read the current property value
from the control.
Probably even better to declare "Running" as a const and then compare
against the const.
