Hello Jerry
when I activate a popup with
do menu1.mpr
the menu pops-up at the place of the mouse, unless it is off the screen then it pops-up at the closest place to the mouse
you can fix this by moving the mouse
Mouse at 1,1
do menu1.mpr
>Thanks, but that doesn't work. The popup is defined and activated in the command button's click() event. The command button could be positioned anywhere on the form.
>
>When the button is clicked, how can I tell the popup to display right on top of the command button?
>
>Thanks,
