suspend mouse clicks?

[Lynch, Jonathan]

The script sets it as a custom property.

You can set any nonexistant property you wish (only, best to use
one-word prop names) - and the program will create that property for the
object.

When you set the field's lockMouseClicks property to true, all it does
is store the word "true" in a custom property of the field named
"lockMouseClicks"

In the mousedown handler of the field, it only passes the mousedown
message if the field's lockMouseClicks property is not equal to true.

Thanks for the suggestion and script.  I'm having trouble locating  
the lockMouseClicks property.  Where did you come up with it?
