The following bit shuld work: > <There followed an example procedure which will do (essentially what was wanted)> One slight problem with this approach is the number of places you have to trap the condition and make sure it is done right. Activate events on your window, updates, etc. It is far easier to do it as a useritem and let the dialog mgr. take care of it through its own methods (calling your action-proc when needed).
