Thanks -- you might be right Terry. In my case, the copy event is being initiated by the palette, but the actual copying is taking place between two other stacks, which might have something to do with the problem. But given that the starting stack is a palette, I would think mouseMove would always be active there.
Thanks to John C for the frontScript suggestion. Might wind up trying that.
