I have the calendar plugin atop of other input boxes and winbutton plugins. The calendar keeps getting over lapped by the other objects when I move my mouse over that specific area. What am I doing wrong??

Hi Mark. You can't overlap objects if you need both objects to be functional, it has to do with the way Windows draws the screens. That's why you don't see input objects being overlapped in other development software also. That's not to say some intrepid programmer couldn't design an exception but as a rule of thumb you can't generally overlap active Windows components in a manner which leaves both objects functional as far as I know, at least not in AMS. Hope that clears that part up.
Now as to a solution, the main solution thing I can think of is to dynamically hide the "offending" objects when not in use. So that only one object in any given set of overlapping objects is visible at any given time. Another option is to tweak the layout so that the overlap doesn't occur.
Anyhow that's two cents, hope it helps.
