It's defiantly better that what I ended writing :)

/me re writing the code (again!) :)

Out of curiosity, what does the m stand for? method?

Thanks

Nothing at all. :-)

I think its common to sometimes name object parameters as MyWindow or MyListbox because we cannot use the class names. So mWindow or mListbox tends to fly off of the keyboard for me when thinking of names.

Actually, I think the m prefix is a hang-over from the old procedural days, m standing for modular, as in belonging to the module rather than belonging to the sub-routine or function. Hence you'll often also see g used for globals, but that one's a bit more obvious.
