  I'm having a problem passing a procedure pointer to a UserIterm procedure
in Lightspeed C. Its taking place inside of a Desk Accesory whose window
is a dialog box.
 
I put in the pointer for the UserItem like
GetDItem(dpeek,15,&itype,&ihandle,&rr);
SetDItem(dpeek,15,itype,&MyItem,&rr);
The function is defined as
pascal void MyItem(theWindow,itemNo)
WindowPtr theWindow;
int itemNo;
 
  The function is never getting called. I have a SysBeep(3) at the beginning to
see if it ever is called. Also a Static Text item is never drawn which comes
after the myProc in the item list. Everything works fine if I don't try
to replace the pointer so I can use the UserItem, but I need the UserItem.
 
Any Ideas?
 
Another problem (academic): A dialog within a Desk Acc. is supposed to work
with all Dialog Mgr calls, but IsDialogEvent returns FALSE; I skip
it and pass everything to DialogSelect. Is this right?
