Hi Ramesh,
Karina is right--you should use a boolean, not a property.
I think you may be getting confused by the two meanings of "property."
(1) A property variable is really just a static variable on steroids. It
can hold any kind of value--integer, string, whatever. This kind of
property variable is usually defined as:
proprtey pPause
(2) A property type, indicated with a #. Typicallly you use them in lists,
thus:
[#name: Ramesh, #job: programmer]
Access to items in property lists is typically faster than linear lists.
This type of property has other uses, like calling a handler (call #myHanlder).
The point is, even if you have a property variable, it doesn't have to
contain a property. Make sense? I think you're better off with something
like pPause = FALSE.
Cordially,
Kerry Thompson
