The psuedo code presented below should reside in a _POSTINIT_ override on the
frame class.
Seems to work fine, but of course I overlooked that the user may want to select
something and the code I gave never returns control to the user. Bit of a
problem
I guess. I'm trying a couple of other ideas out to see if they can help.
