I don't remember anything in IM about it, but I've discovered that Desk Accessories must be written so that they are re-entrant! When I put up an alert, my DA gets called with a de-activate event. When the alert goes away, my DA gets called with an update event. Are there other events that cause a DA to re-enter? Dave Smith

If the d.a. puts up an alert, then it will be called not only for
deactivate and update while the alert is up, but also idle, acccursor,
and accRun. If the d.a calls MenuKey(), with a command key equivalent to
one of its menu choices, it will be called reentrantly with a accMenu.
