Well, as I think I mentioned before, I help my
boss/the chair of the CS department/the head of
IT(yes, he wears all 3 hats) with his intro Palm
class, and I'm seeing something that doesn't make much
sense to me...

One of the first labs that they have to do involves a
program with a 2 forms, and a button on each form that
switches to the other form.  One of the questions that
they have to figure out how to do is to set the code
up so that any penDown on the left side of the screen
on the second form will switch back to the first form.
 Now, my friend decided to start playing around with
this, and he found something odd which I don't have an
answer for:

The top left corner of the button(just a plain vanilla
button) is at 28.  When he sets the value to check the
penDown event against at 25, meaning anything on the
first 25 pixels will switch to the other form, that
part works just fine - but it disables the button. 
We've tried commenting the code out for each, and they
both work if the other isn't there, but if the value's
at 25, the button 3 pixels further over doesn't work. 
(To the best I can figure, if we change the value to
something more than 28, it'll work if you click on the
button b/c I believe it recognizes it as a penDown,
not as a ctlSelectEvent.)

Any ideas?  Or would you need to see code?
