Popup button and DataGrid

[Paul Looney]

Peter,
That makes sense but what is the syntax?
I tried putting:

on dgMouseDown
      -- various things
end dgMouseDown

but that handler never got called.
I tried:

on mouseDown
      send "dgMouseDown" to grp "Pending Orders Data Grid"
      popup btn "Selected Orders Popup"
end mouseDown

which seemed to have no effect.
Seem to be really close now.
