You are listening for clicks in the CList, right? If you place something
in each cell that can itself create signals (almost anything: you probably
have it in already, unless you're using only Labels in the CList), then
you can attach a listener (the same listener) to each of those. 

I hope I'm right, good luck. It's certainly better than checking for the
(x,y) position, isn't it?

All the best, Mark
