Hi, I would like to do a couple things with objects involving custom properties and I just don't seem to able to figure out how to do them. Certain Objects I am creating depend on the presence of a controlling handler in a card's script. I want to check a cd for the presence or absence of a custom property. If the property doesn't exist then I want to create it. The presence of the property will act as a flag that indicates that the object has already had a controlling handler added to its script.
1. I want to be able to check for the existence of a custom property in an object using a statement. put the customProperties of cd objCard into propCker -- where objCard is any card and propCker is a local var Would the properties placed in propCker be placed there as in an array so I could use a repeat structure to check for the presence of the property I'm looking for. This is what I have come up with thus far repeat with i = 1 to the number of items in propCker put item i of propCker into solomon -- solomon = a var if theProp = solomon -- where theProp is the property I'm checking for, exit -- then property exists - don't alter Object's script else ( theProp � solomon ) - check another property end if end repeat -- this will go through all the items in propCker the problem arises in the condition where propCker is either empty or doesn't contain theProp I'm looking for. or would the properties be placed in the propCker a different way. 2. If the property in (1) doesn't exist I want to create it in the object How would I create a new property in cd objCard? put newProp in the customProperties of cd objCard -- where newProp is the name of the new property Any ideas will be appreciated.
