Thanks to both of you and anyone else who tries to offer a hand. Its really hard to not get frustrated when you are told that this can be done, yet not told how to in the software. Sorry-venting. Regardless, I am using a simple SPST momentary pushbutton- on one ever mentioned a SPDT momentary till now. I continued on last night after my last post and went thru hoops, stood on my head, you get the picture.
What is a NO type switch vs. NC?

NO menas "normally open" and NC means "normally closed".
What that means is that in a NO switch when the button is NOT pushed the contacts on the switch make no electrical connection to each other. In a NC switch when the button is NOT pushed the contacts DO make an electrical connection with each other.
You'll also see this refrerenced as NO = "make" on activation and a NC as "break" on activation.
Hope that helps.
best,
