Thanks Jacqueline (I don't know if you like your full name or "Jackie")

Anything. My mother calls me "Jack". Most people call me "Jackie," but I spell it "Jacque". That has caused some list people to think I'm male -- so I started signing "Jacqueline" a long time ago to avoid confusion. I'll answer to "hey you" too.


Also, since the mouseUp handler in the field that calls the popup is
continuing without waiting for a response from the user, where is my menuPick message in the button supposed to send the selection the user
made? To another handler in the field that is responsible for putting
up the Add/Edit/Delete screens?  Is the mouseUp handler "done" after
it has issued the "popup" command to my menu button?

Change the mouseUp handler in the field to a mouseDown. Popup buttons should be called from a mouseDown handler. That forces the menu to wait for a mouseup, which closes the menu. If the mouseUp happens outside the menu, it closes without doing anything (just like pressing escape.) If the mouseUp happens inside the menu, the button's menuPick handler is triggered.

So, in the field:

on mouseDown
 popup btn "myMenuBtn"
end mouseDown

And in the menu button:

on menuPick which
 -- handle the menu selection
end menuPick
