Default ActiveX Control with Dialog Causes "Lock"

Hi All,

I wasn't sure whether to post this here or in the VB Controls group, but I
thought I'd start here.

We have an Excel Add-In that uses an ActiveX control created in VB. Part of
this control opens a dialog box that allows the user to change some settings.

The problem is, occassionally this dialog appears to be locked to the user.
You cannot access any of the controls with the mouse, as if focus is "stuck"
somewhere in the calling form or Excel. However, the dialog looks like it
has focus, and if you press the Esc key, the Cancel button is correctly
pressed.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
pagates
