If you do have a frame (say theFrame or theParagraph), the NS syntax
is theFrame.theSlot. If the slot's name is in a variable (or a
const), you do theFrame.(theVariableWhichIsEqualToTheSlotSymbol).
Your problem is basically to have a reference to the paragraph.
Usually, you get the reference to a child by declaring it. If the
button and the paragraph have a common parent, you will be able to
access the paragraph with its name directly. This is rather abstract,
but if I have the concrete example, I'll tell you what to do.

There is not a lot of programming question here, but it is not
contrary to the list's chart AFAIK.
