Terry: As I follow this discussion of your struggle with button frames, I selfishly (sorry!) notice that you are doing something in your app that I am interested in doing in mine - generating a form and controls dynamically...
I am new to Palm development, and am trying to get up to speed with CodeWarrior Version 8 as quickly as possible. Any hints/advice on where to get samples on dynamically generating forms and controls would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks, and good luck with the pushButtons!

Great idea !! But, the form is created completely dynamically (meaning, Constructor isn't involved at all). The number, placement, and content of buttons is soley dependent on runtime choices by the user. Right now, I'm toying with switching to pushButtons, and then using WinEraseRectangleFrame to get my "frameless button(s)". It's causing some ugly side effects during the times when there are dozens of buttons on the form. What a hassle ... just to keep Palm OS from drawing a rectangle around a button. Sheesh. It used to work soooooo well .... Thanks for the suggestion.
