   Well, that's an easier way to do it... Nothing like over-thinking something. ;)   
      
   Thank you.   
      
    g0> Yes you can use the box MCI code to drop a box and then use the input to

    g0> and the use input to get the input.  Or you could use any of the   
    g0> box/input classes to draw form-like things using MPL.  There are lots of   
    g0> ways to do it.   
      
   Awesome. I'll have to do some playing around and see what I can come up with.   
      
    g0> There is an example of one way (although it might be overkill for what   
    g0> you just asked) in testinput.mps that comes with Mystic.   
      
   That would have been WAY to simple, to look at example MPLs that come with   
   Mystic. We need to work Harder, not Smarter! lol ;)   
      
   Thank you again. Keep up the great work!
