pull-down menu not working in standalone for windows

[Ivers, Doug E]

A point of clarification: I'm using a popup menu such that when the user right-clicks in a field, the menu appears.  The only way I know to do this is to create a button of type popup that is hidden, and popup the menu in the mouseDown handler of the field.

After further testing, it seems that I have to set the visible of the popup button to true in order to have a functioning popup menu in a standalone for Windows.  However, I don't want the user to see the button itself.
