If both bars share the same public variable, then both bars are always on or off right?
Your process doesn't _really_ care if the bar is checked or nor, it really cares about the same condition that the bar cares about to set its check. Therefore, just use your global variable as a reference to see if the condition is true or not. You can trust that the bar will be checked if it it's SET MARK expression is true. Make sense?
