Thanks Jacques!

In preopenstack I move buttons around to suit the platform and default value, 
and I arrange to return the default value on returnkey. But I do nothing 
unusual. I've had to revert to using an answer dialog--which works--but I wish 
my own dialog would work! This is old code that worked for years that I revived 
for this project (I wanted my own look-and-feel). Convinces  me I really AM 
losing my grip!
