My error. I thought that escclose meant that it would close the form without raising an event. I thought that esc always raised a keyboard event so escclose was not necessary. I guess things are a little different in QT.
I would appreciate a link to the QT/C source. I have looked at it a while back but I have been doing other things and have lost touch with the link into the source. That way I may stop asking stupid questions. Thanks for your help.
