Looking at the source code, I'm now recommending the use of CtlHitControl. Not only does it save you the work of setting up the ctlSelectEvent, it does a very thorough job of it, setting some things that are normally left out, such as event.penDown event.screenX, and event.screenY.
On a more general note, the fact that form objects are referred to in three different ways (pointer, ID, index) definitely makes for a messy API. There are performance differences between these alternatives, so there is some reason to have them, but it still seems overly complicated to me. -- Peter Epstein -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
