Yes you can do that. Just "copy" the control to the clipboard and save the clipboard data to a property. (clipboarddata["objects"] I think)
I was doing this with whole stacks and it works fine. To restore the object, put the cWhereIStoredIt into the clipboarddata["objects"] and then paste it. (didn't check dictionary so not positive if objects is correct) On Mon, Apr 29, 2013 at 6:48 PM, Peter Haworth <p...@lcsql.com> wrote: > Is it possible to store a control in a custom property and then create a > control by referencing that custom property?
