This is a complex one :-(. When the frames get floated, they are turned
into wxFloatingPane objects by the display manager, thus many of the
objects in their original frmQuery class are no longer accessible. In
this case, the crash happens when it tries to update the menus on the
main query form. I've modified the code to stop it trying if the 'this'
pointer is of type wxFloatingPane (it doesn't make sense to have the
buttons/menus reflecting the status of the floating window anyway), and
added a ctrl-c shortcut to the edit grid control so data can be copied
out when it's floating.

As there are potentially other bugs caused by this mod, would you mind
if I mailed you an updated .exe for testing?

Regards, Dave.
