But you only need the grp identifier if there are more than one buttons
named "cash" on this card.

Hint to save some typing:
If you omit a boolean value (true or false) then the engine will  
presume you mean -> true

...
if the HILITE of button "cash" of grp id 1053 then
...

Looks like the engine is an optimist ;-)
