	Since Ada does not provide for procedural variables, how
do you/your associates handle the need for having a procedure or
a task perform different duties depending on run-time circumstances?

	One scenario would be to pass an enumeration value to the
procedure and then to use "if-then-else-end if" or "case" statements to
determine which procedure should be run. This approach will work;
however, it seems inelegant.


	Does anyone one out there have a "nifty" solution or idea
that they would be willing to share?

Thanks,
