Thanks Terry and Russ. I will probably just use a contextual menu then. In fact, I have already implemented dozens of those. The one thing I am missing with a conttextual menu is the ability for the user to see what is selected. For example, if the popup were states, then the user can see that "Idaho" is selected at a glance, as opposed to a contextmen where the user would have to bring it up and look for a check mark. I suppose I can always but a static text which holds the selection on the window. Related to this question... is there any way to put checkmarks on a popup menu? I can do that on menu items and context menu items but I don't see how to do that with a popup menu.
