Pop-Up Menu Superobject

I have some nagging behavior with the pop-up menu superobject  
concerning where the menu appears when the triangle is selected.  I  
use dual monitors.  I have a form in monitor A with a few PUMSOs with  
the following characteristics:  Assigned to a variable; formula a look- 
up to a second db; action tied to a procedure; menu type: multi  
column; Display options: Triangle, 1x drop; Color: value.

75% of the time, when I click the triangle, the menu appears in the  
lower right corner of monitor B rather than at the triangle location.  
Note it's not always consistent.  In fact I have similar PUMSOs on the  
form and sometimes one works right while the other does not.  Playing  
around, I see that changing the menu type to standard corrects the  
problem, so the Multi column must be the culprit.

Any suggestions as to  why or how to fix things?

Thanks,
