ParcelToolModeless.sml

#  ParcelToolModeless.SML - Allows user to select and highlight a vector polygon
#	representing a parcel.  Script opens a Visual Basic form showing the
#  parcel ID from the selected polygon.  User enters Last Name and First
#  Name in the Visual Basic form and the database is updated.

# The following symbols are predefined
#    class VIEW View            {use to access the view the tool script is attached to}
#    class GROUP Group          {use to access the group being viewed if the script is run from a group view}
#    class LAYOUT Layout        {use to access the layout being viewed if the script is run from a layout view} 
# 
# The following values are also predefined and are valid when the various On...() 
# functions are called which deal with pointer and keyboard events. 
#    number PointerX            Pointer X coordinate within view in pixels 
#    number PointerY            Pointer Y coordinate within view in pixels
