Hey Dudes,

In one of my applications, I have TIMER objects constantly running code. (They
are constantly reading data from various probe hardware).

Buttons on forms should always be usable while the TIMERs are running.

In certain circumstances, it takes multiple attempts to click buttons on the forms before the button actually registers the click.

HOWEVER, by clicking both the LEFT and RIGHT buttons on the mouse at-the-same-time, yields 100% success rate every time! Strange!

Upon further testing, the RIGHT mouse button always seems to select the button properly, while the LEFT mouse button clicks it and gets the button to work.

So I figure that the RIGHT button is the key instrument to getting this 100% button-clicking success rate.

Any ideas why? Or how I can get the LEFT button to work 100% like the RIGHT button? I was thinking that maybe I could force a RIGHT-mouse-click everytime the user clicks the LEFT-mouse button. Any ideas if this is possible?

Anyone else have encounters like this?
Thanks for any help!
