Thanks, but no.  A computer scientist mate of mine initially suggested that.
It didn't work.  He then suggested I just got rid of dlg.Destroy(), which
works, but he couldn't tell me whether it was a safe thing to do or not.  He
suggested that as the 'deleted' dialogue wouldn't be destroyed immediately
with dlg.Destroy() it might retain the focus.  I don't know.
