Hi Gary,

    Thanks for taking a look at this from your side.
    I have tested this from multiple machines. Firebird 0.6.1 on FreeBSD and
Firebird on WindowsXP (at work, so I don't have the version number handy). The
behavior is consistent. The procedure I'm following to duplicate the failure is:

1) Click calendar icon to get the popup
2) click the right arrows next to the month name on the popup to change the month
3) try to click into any text field.

I get 100% failure. :(

Thanks,
Alex
