Re: Visual Builder question, method onClick

Dmitry,
Thank you very much for your reply! Ok, then my question is how do I
insert my sub in the object inspector? I see the "$self = $_[0];" in
the object inspector, but I do not understand the correct syntax to
insert the sub. (I have tried just plugging in my sub, something like
"bandSelect('7')" )

Thanks very much!

Tim
