>>>I have a form that contains an editbox. The user wants to be able to left click on it and have a picklist of statements appear. That is easy by calling my picklist form from the .Click() event. However, clicking in the editbox's scroll bar also triggers the .Click() event which is undesirable. Any way to determine if the Click was in the text area of the editbox or in the scrollbar?

OK.

You can start with this idea.
In the mousedown of the list:

if nXcoord-this.left > this.width-14
	messagebox("scrollbar")
else
	messagebox("list")	
endif	

Customize this to store a value indicating where the click occurs in the list and acces this value from the click event...

HTH :-)
