I'm trying to implement pause feature to my GUI. My
objective is: When I click button with mouse, function
associated to that button will execute. When I click that
button again with my mouse and previous execution is
unfinished, prorgam will pause. When I click my button
again, it will continue execution from the point I halted it
when I paused program.

Any ideas?

Hello
Probable workaround suggested, would be to make "enable"
property of the pushbutton to be "off" till your functions
are executing. As soon as the functions are executed you
can turn the "enable" property to "on" again..
