Thank you for your very prompt response.  I tried what you suggested
and it works fine.  Do you have any examples for creating widgets
which contain other widgets?  I want to have a VPaned Widget within my
Widget and any child widgets will be inserted into the Vpaned Widget.
I'm getting really confused about how to access the
composite_class.insert_child routine of the Vpaned widget so that I
don't have to write my own insert child but simply change the parent
of the incoming widget to my widgets vpaned widget and then call the
insert_child routine of the vpaned widget.  ???

Anyway, I've looked thru the sources for the Athena widgets and can't
seem to find any examples of this kind of thing.  Are there any more
examples somewhere on the net?
