Plot Event Toggling

I have a simple macro that runs when the Plot event is triggered, residing
in it's own dvb file. (The idea was that if someone didn't want it to
happen, they could simply unload it.)

Now, I have several macros that do various types of plotting, similar to the
PUBLISH command, but including logging into a database, etc. What I'd like
to do is have a toggle on the publish type macro forms that will turn off
the other one. I'm hoping for advice on *good* way to do such a thing and
would appreciate any thoughts.

 

Why not just have your PUBLISH program unload the other DVB??

ThisDrawing.Application.UnloadDVB "C:\Temp\Plot Event.dvb"

I have a batch plotting program that unloads another dvb at the start then
loads it once plotting is complete.

After re-reading my post, I don't think I explained my problem well.

As it is, now, the plot event triggers a check for a stamp, offering to
update it for the user (not my idea, but the company wants it to be
optional). I want the event to fire, if the user wants, but don't want them
to have to say yes for each layout's plot, which is the case right now.

I suppose a simple boolean, or some such needs added. I gave that a couple
quick tries, but it didn't seem to work out, well. I think that is the
necessary solution, though. Referencing other projects is still new to me,
so I was probably doing something stoopid.

Thanks for the response.
