>>I have a form with an edit box. There is text in the edit box. I want to be able to use the mouse to highlight some text, right click and copy the text. But when I try to do that by clicking and dragging the mouse over the text I want, I get the circling 'busy' windows 7 cursor activated when I let go of the mouse key. The cursor icon continues to spin until I close my EXE.

I don't remember putting it there, but yes. It was a timer. Thank you for the lead.
