My game uses a 3d terrain and selectable objects, I coded my GUI so that when I press ESC it brings up the options window. If I press ESC again it closes the options window. This is accomplished using the following code...

Function EscPress()
		If EscKey = 0
			EscKey = 1
			KeyShow = 1
			;Show Option window
			Win(1) = GUI_CreateWindow("Options",0,0,300,300,1+2+8,"CENTER","CENTER",-1)
			OptButtn1%     = GUI_AddButton   (Win(1), 10,40,120, "Help")
			GUI_WindowToFront Win(1)
		Else
			EscKey = 0
			KeyShow = 0
			;Hide Option Window
			GUI_RemoveWindow Win(1)	
		EndIf	
End Function

The problem is that I cant seem to click the close button or a help button on that option window when its open. I run a CheckWindow function every loop before the HUD_Update and GUI_Update functions to see if the user clicked the close window X button. It works sometimes, but mostly not at all. Im wondering if things that are happening in the back ground are causing the window to lose focus? I tried to keep that from happening by Checking if the Options window was open in the CheckWindow Function, if the window was open I use

If EscKey = 1 Then GUI_WindowToFront Win(1)

which I thought brought the window to the front of everything and basically gave it the focus.
I have been trying things for a few hours now and I cannot seem to get this going.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
