In my program, when the user opens a window (About or Options, e.g.) I show 
controls as they were when the user last used the program.  As an example, I 
set a checkbox value to true or false in code so that it is in the same state 
as the user left it.  In troubleshooting my code, I realized that setting a 
control in code triggers the control's event, in this case the checkbox's 
default event.  Is there a better way to solve this situation than using a 
global boolean variable at the beginning of an event so that I can prevent the 
remainder of the event from executing if I trigger the event from code rather 
than the user triggering the event from the user interface?
Example:

If gblnVariable = false then
   exit
end if

Sincerely,
Steve Hedgepeth
