Thank you Jan, that's a good approach too. FYI, I wound up taking a simple approach, after I thought about this some more... I simply have an antcall from one target to another that checks the second property. So it winds up being like a nested if in a sense... I would have to explain quite a bit to be able to explain why this worked in my case, but suffice it to say it does :)
Thanks everyone, I appreciate all the suggestions! -- Frank W.
