Yes as I said, since my threading in my email for this list is now completely 
hosed, I get everyone’s responses way up the list of emails after the original 
was sent. I think it has to do with some people using the mailing list and 
others using the web portal.

There is no mention of them in the dictionary.  They aren't there in LC 5.5
and are in LC 6.1 (don't have a copy of 6.0 so can't check there).

I can't find mention of them in any release notes either although I haven't
searched them extensively.

Am I the only one that somehow missed the introduction of these properties?

However . . .

When I did this:

on mouseUp
   put the controlids   -   the controlnames of card TRANS-HAL of 
stack DWPro into fld IDZ of stack Cheese

end mouseUp

I did NOT get a list of nicely paired ID numbers and names, but a 
messy something of which this is a sample:


controlids - VREFF
KREFF
fSIZING
rat-track.gif
scroler.png
BGRAD.png
2424k
2391k
2390k
7378k
7379k
VEE.png
2388k
2387k
2389k
2373k

The above are ALL names: ID numbers having vanished somewhere 
??


so will have to do some further fiddling around as that does not float 
my boat overly much.

Certainly, as of 6.7 and 7.0.1 rc3 controlids and controlnames are NOT 
documented.

Yes: the childControlIDs and childConbtrolNames only go one level down;
anything in a group will not be reported. the controlIDs and controlNames
list everything everywhere. So given this structure:

card id 1002
group id 1007 [1007]
|  button Button [1004]
|  button Button [1006]

put the controlIDs of card id 1002

1007
1004
1006

put the childControlIDs of card id 1002

1007

I did these when I did childControlIDs and childControlNames as it was

way to contribute them. These days you need to include docs with each change
