Trinione	How can a Dialog box be closed when the user clicks anywhere outside of it? Similar to how the TCalendar works. Thanks.

I'll have to add a property to the Application/Surface classes to allow for this behavior. Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com

Dialogs/forms are not focusable, so it's not that simple, and modal dialogs/forms are specifically designed to not go away just because the user tries to click away from them.

However... Is a hybrid possible? A Drop-Down-Form Control. Where the Form can be contained within a Drop-Down control.
