You are right. I can't detect from within the list handler but I
*can* detect that the pen tapped out-of-bounds of the list. The
return value of LstPopupList returns list element or NULL.
Ok one more try before I give up. Say I don't use LstPopupList.
Can I use the list attributes to Enable and Disable the list
and then use the list handler for that list to detect pen points?
