I have already done this, see my first post.

sizeEvent.eventId=[sizeEvent.subSchedId at: sizeEvent.subSchedTime
createActionTo:  self message: M(atMaxSize1 )];

Now, I have the "eventId" stored.  We have now advanced in time in the
program and I want to know whether the "eventId" is still valid or whether
it has already been executed and is therefore invalid.  When eventId's for
agents are executed they are supposed to be set to NULL, but one seems to be
getting by and I am trying to find where that happens.  I want to search my
agent list at each time step and see if and when a non-zero eventId is
invalid.  For that I would need a test that would look something like the
"if" statement I put in my first email.  Now, if that is not correct, no
problem, but could you then tell me what a correct test would be.
