David,
Thank you for the tip.
I have the habbit of copying and pasting from my old code without
checking the specifics. The tlb_frame_attr was set to 8 in my
original code, and this explains why the default button never did show
up. This is a good lesson for me:)

It has been ages since Apple squandered all their
good will with me, but I can't believe this little
box doesn't come up by default. Are you sure you
are not doing something in your code to prevent it?
Applying the TLB_FRAME_ATTR keyword will prevent these
kinds of things on Windows platforms. I'd look for that
keyword in your code.
Best Regards,
David
