Hi Mark
It works ....just what I wanted. I implemented it so that the user
cannot cut, but can paste into a listbox, with normal functionality
in the editfields. So, I assume the default for RB is always have
copy/cut/paste return false? ( ie enabled).

Could anyone help me understand the following.
Lels say a window has 2 controls, eg Editfields.
In one editfield, I would like to implement copy but no paste,
as an

copy.
How does one implement this? Or is this not as straight forward
as it
sounds.
Here's one way to do it:
Add 2 boolean properties to your window. Call them NoCopy and
NoPaste and have them both default to False.
For the no-paste editfield, add code to the GotFocus and
LostFocus events. The GotFocus event should set NoPaste to True
and the LostFocus event should set NoPaste to False.
For the no-copy editfield, do the same, except the GotFocus event
should set NoCopy to True, and the LostFocus event should set
NoCopy to False.
Now for the Window itself, in the EnableMenuItems event, add
EditCopy.Enabled = not NoCopy
EditPaste.Enabled = not NoPaste
Double negatives may be bad English grammar, but they work just
fine as RB code. ;-)
