SelectionChanged issue

[xbury.cs at clearstream.com]

I would say to use the mousewithin (the howitzer canon) or an idle 
message...

Is the idle so bad?

on idle
  get the selchunk
  if it is empty or myfield is not in it then pass idle
end idle...

a millisecond trigger should do the trick too...
