>Ok guys ... I know you're not ignoring me. :-) But I posted this question a couple days ago and have gotten zero responses. Since I'm sure
someone out there has either seen this or sees what I'm missing, I'm posting it again to cajole you all into uncovering the mystery for me:

I use TLs a lot, but you're doing something I haven't done here with the SYSMENU involvement. First thought, though probably you've checked, have you NULLified the oApp prop? Also, I use a form prop for the second WITH param (I forget why, there was some problem, I think, a long while ago).
