Hi Rob,

Thanks for the *multiple* solutions. Since it is a group (a 
collection of two graphics) that I am trying to move with the mouse, 
only  one of alternatives work for me. Apparently a group will not 
take as an icon the graphic displayed in the group.

But a button behind the group works splendidly, using a mouseMove to 
cause the button and the group follow the mouse.

Thanks again,

Jim
