>>I have a container class in vfp7. The container contains a variety of controls such as shapes, labels... etc. The container has a mouseenter and mouseleave event routine for displaying/removing a popup editbox. Unfortunately the mouseenter fires when you enter the container then mouseleave fires when you pass over any control in the container. While I can understand that this may be the intended behavior, is there any way to make it so that mouseenter and mouseleave fire when entering and leaving the container only?

Yanick,
Close :) What I meant was to use amouseobj() or sys(1272,sys(1270)) to get the object mouse is over. ie:

loObj = sys(1270)
if type('loObj') = 'O' and !compobj(loObj,this)
  lcObj = sys(1272,loObj)
  lcThis = sys(1272,this)
  if lcThis = lcObj
* ...
  endif
endif
