What if you just make a StaticText subclass "ClickableStaticText" that has a New Event Action(X As Integer,Y As Integer), a "Return True" in its MouseDown() event and "Action X, Y" in its MouseUp event, then put one of these in a window and - in its new "Action" event, put the ShowURL code. Does that help, or does it do the same thing? Just curious.

I just added some static text to one of my windows. For the Mouse Down Event I put in Return True . For the Mouse Up event I put in: ShowURL "http:// www.realsoftware.com"

Whenever I Mouse Down on the text and then I move the cursor completely outside the App window, holding the mouse button down, out over the desktop and let the mouse up, a Browser window launches. I put a msgbox in the Mouse up event and displayed x,y and it said x = -1241 and y = -331.

According to the Language Reference page on Static Text, the mouse up should not fire unless the button was released inside the statictext region. How far away from the static text do I have to get to be outside the statictext region?
