I have no idea what to do with this one.  The explaination of which could be lengthy. . .  In my system, I'm using an HDTV monitor as a display.  This means that PH is operated "blind" a good bit of the time.  A few times now a family member will come to me saying "It's not working" (meaning the Entertainment Control System).  I'll go to the Keyboard an hit my hot key to switch to the computer mode a low and behold nothing happens.  Since I can't see the computer, I get out my remotes and start switching stuff, and I'll come to find PH with the "Open Design View" dialog open.  We have a "Gyro Mouse" and it is very easy to bump the buttons (They are huge, wrapped around the side, and very sensitive).  The Escape Key is so far the best fix, but it is difficult to communicate this to all my users.  Is there anyway to "fix" this problem?

Bob,

That is something to think about.  I'll see what I can do though.  I'll try to come up with a way that the pop-up times out or a formula function that can be run to disable the mouse, etc.

I'll keep you posted.

How did the IR button stuff turn out?

Dave.
