RE: Turning on the lights
I think you might need a break before
case menuEvent:
Probably what is happening is that the event is falling through your
ctlSelectEvent case statement, and then continues on through the menuEvent
case, where MainFormDoCommand is called. I would guess that
MainFormDoCommand just pops up the about box . . . ?

Ok. I have two buttons on my form. One is the about
button and the other on a clear button that I would
like to make the palm light go on with. If I click on
the about button the about form popups up. but if I
click on the clear button (which should only turn the
light on or off) the about form will popup after the
light goes on??
static Boolean MainFormHandleEvent(EventPtr eventP)
{
Boolean handled = false;
FormPtr frmP;
switch (eventP-eType)
{
case ctlSelectEvent:
UInt16 ctrlID =
eventP-data.ctlSelect.controlID;
ControlPtr ctrlPtr=
eventP-data.ctlSelect.pControl;
if (ctrlID == MainAboutButton)
{
frmP = FrmInitForm (AboutForm);
FrmDoDialog (frmP);
FrmDeleteForm (frmP);
handled = true;
}
if (ctrlID == MainClearButton)
{
EventType theEvent;
theEvent.eType = keyDownEvent;
theEvent.data.keyDown.chr =
backlightChr ;
theEvent.data.keyDown.keyCode = 0;
theEvent.data.keyDown.modifiers
= commandKeyMask;
EvtAddEventToQueue(theEvent);
handled = true;
}
case menuEvent:
return
MainFormDoCommand(eventP-data.menu.itemID);
case frmOpenEvent:
frmP = FrmGetActiveForm();
MainFormInit( frmP);
FrmDrawForm ( frmP);
handled = true;
break;
default:
break;
}
return handled;
}

Have you stepped through the code with debugger? This will help you see the
flow through the code.
Looks like you're missing a break or return in your ctlSelectEvent. This
will send you through your handler for menuEvent with invalid eventP data.

You are missing a break statement.
case menuEvent:
return MainFormDoCommand(eventP-data.menu.itemID);
case frmOpenEvent:
frmP = FrmGetActiveForm();
MainFormInit( frmP);
FrmDrawForm ( frmP);
handled = true;
break;
default:
break;
}
return handled;
}
