I have a problem with the highlighting of the selectionbuffer.

	If I select a piece of text in a AsciiStringWidget with 
	XtTextSetSelection it highligths nicely. If I want to select a
	second piece of text in the widget en use a XtTextUnsetSelection
	before calling XtTextSetSelection, the seconde piece is highlighted
	but the highlight is not removed from the first piece of text.

	Does anybody know what I might be doing wrong??

Thanks in advance,


Werner H.P. Vogels
