Thanks.  This seems to work fine under MultiFinder.

Is there any way to make multiple selections (a la Shift-click)?  If I hold down
the command, tab and shift keys and then click, it no longer prevents the window
from popping up.  Holding down command-tab and dragging does let me choose
multiple items, but this has limited utility.

Thanks again!
