I don't see anything wrong with your code.  Your target chain should go 
from the person TEView, to its Frame, to the list TEView, to its Frame, to 
theWindow, ...

There may be something funny going on within MacApp, but nothing comes to 
mind immediately.  I tried looking to see where the target and 
fNextHandler fields are changed, but didn't find anything.

I think you should use the MacApp debugger to see how the target chain 
ends up.  You can display the current gTarget by typing 'I gTarget' to the 
debugger.  Then you can start tracing the target chain back.  Knowing 
what's in the chain would help track down where it is getting messed up.

Let me know if you need more help.  (I tried mailing to you but wasn't 
successful.)
