   Ah, the key would be to wait() on the report, right?  Thus, I could setup   
   my own menu to match the current Pdox one, and capture each command.   
      
   This also ties in with another issue I've recently come across.  I'm letting   
   my users declare a form to be a dialog, so they can park it on an extra   
   monitor.   
    But, previewed reports end up behind them.  Is there a report equivalent   
   to form.OpenAsDialog()?  Extra credit - can you change an open non-dialog   
   form to a dialog?  Seems like a few fancy windows calls would be needed   
   (anyone?   
   anyone?)   
      
   Thanks,
