That idea occurred to me a few minutes ago. However, I get unexpected word
IPauseResumeRecording when I compile the script. My global variable is the
following:
Int IPauseResumeRecording
Jaws takes me to this line when I compile the script. I can't figure out
what is wrong with this global. Any thoughts?
