Hi Joe,
You asked:
<<
Now I'm confused -- is this a Mac app or a Windows one?

Hopefully both. Kinda the idea behind RB right?
Anyway there is no code in the *key* events for any of these controls.
However, cut and paste work on Mac version of the program compiled with
4.5.3. They do not work on the Windows version of the program compiled with
5.5.2. I can't get RB 5.5.2 to compile an OS X version of my app and when I
try to run the OS 9 version, I get an out of memory error. That's why I'm
referring to the one I'm running from 4.5.3. I'm willing to bet that if I
compile a Windows version using 4.5.3 that cut/copy/paste will work.

If you had an app that supported those shortcuts without appropriate menu
commands, then it was doing something special, and was neither following Mac
UI guidelines nor using the standard Mac menu manager.

Come on Joe... You don't really mean that do you? Try this:
1. Start iTunes
2. Choose File|Export Song List
3. Expand the dialog if needed to reveal the "New Folder" button
4. Click the New Folder button
5. Notice that you can cut/paste/copy with the command keys yet there is no
Edit menu for them.
I guess that the folks at Apple must disagree with you. ;)
My app was not doing anything special. REALbasic was doing it for me (or
maybe it was simply the underlying Apple written EditField code doing it).
