           clear typeahead
           =messagebox("Something bad happened!",MB_OK,"Error")
because
   1) the end user may be typing the next bit and I do not want the 
error message dismissed before it can be read.
   2) sometimes, there are choices, and I rather like it when the 
correct choice is chosen. <g>

      Point 1 is particularly important in my app since there is a 
large heads-down data entry portion.

Sincerely,

Gene Wirchenko
