Michael, Awesome... thanks for the testing/advice...
I wasn't 100% happy with the mouseEvents either, but sheepishly admit I wasn't aware of the SystemManager and have made some modifications based on your suggestions below and will repost shortly. I agree that performance may be lacking, but unforunately it's "good enough" for my needs and I've gotta move on to the next task at hand... perhaps revisiting at a later date if the performance does become an issue. Once again, thanks for the great advice, and teaching me something new today!
