terminate current list

[Er...@ericwalden.net]

I am trying to figure out how to terminate the currently running list on a certain key press.  I can get the currently running list with c.GetAttribute("Running").  I can use the list name as a variable in the list as [Running].  What I need is code that basically does this:

if DsiplayProductInfoSlide.ACC = 1 then c.GetAttribute("Running").terminate

however, c.GetAttribute("Running") is the string name of the running list not the running list itself.

If I run if DsiplayProductInfoSlide.ACC = 1 then List1.terminates

then it works fine.  However, I have many lists and I need it to automatically terminate the current one.

I think I grabbed this from the E_Basic manual some time ago:

Dim theList As List

Set theList = CList(Rte.GetObject(c.GetAttrib("Running")))

If Not theList Is Nothing Then

theList.Terminate

End If

, where this gets reduced to the single line

CList( Rte.GetObject( c.GetAttrib("Running") ) ).Terminate
