I don't understand why an object would change its id from run to run - I've
never seen that. However, there's is an easy solution. Assign the buttons a
tag (in Interface builder). This is the standard Cocoa way to give an object
an identifier. Of course alternatively you could just examine the button's
title instead of its id, but this is less elegant, since a title might
change in the course of development, and it might be localized. m.
