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.

You have to call the datagrid dgMouseDown handler in your mousedown handler. Assuming your mouseDown handler is in the datagrid script, just call dgMousedown with the button number before you display your popup. Otherwise, the datagrid doesn;t see the mousedown event until after your mousedown handler sees it. No need to pass mouseDown either.

Help please.
I am trying to use a popup button with a datagrid.

I have code, in the dg, that looks like this:

on mouseDown
   popup btn "Selected Orders Popup"
end mouseDown

The popup works fine but the selected line in the dg is not hilited until after something is selected in the popup. So, to the user, it looks like the
popup refers to the previously selected line.
I will probably solve it but figured someone on the list already has the
solution.

Thanks in advance.

Paul,
