Yes, the methods I've suggested do work. I've used them both. Your requirement of putting a call in every object's MouseMove is burdensome and completely unnecessary.
>>You must either put your code in the form's Activate method, or, if it's in the form's Init, you must have a THIS.SETFOCU() in the Init of the listbox.
