That was a quirk that I found by experimentation.
Quick correction:
The sentence in the paragraph above should read:
"Note that I have tkfocus() set to the **ListBox** xBox..."
Sorry for any confusion.

Dear Marc,
Thank you for the suggestions -- I'll try them out. I'd prefer to understand why things work as they do, for fear of introducing other problems. Focusing on the list box won't work for me, I think, since many of the Rcmdr dialogs have more than one list box.
Thanks again, John ----------------------------------------------------- John Fox Department of Sociology McMaster University Hamilton, Ontario, Canada L8S 4M4 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] phone: 905-525-9140x23604 web: www.socsci.mcmaster.ca/jfox
