Hello again. It looks like I got the contextMenu to pop up but it was as I feared. When I right click to bring up the menu, it also changes the selection in the background. Is there a way to disable the right clicking for the QTreeWidget yet still retain the contextMenu? Thanks! B -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
