	I just started programming in Xview (X11R3, Openwindows 1.0)
a few weeks ago and I ran into problem with the scrolling list item. 
The problem is that I have the O'Reilly & Associates vol 7, and the 
subject of editing scrolling lists is not covered. In Appendix F it 
is said that this feature is not currently supported in Xview. On the 
other hand, when I create a scrolling list there is an editing 
menu for the scrolling list.

	What I would like to do is to get rid of the editing menu 
while keeping the ability to select items in the list. I would 
apreciate any hint that will help me get over my problem. Thank's 
in advance.

Here's what I tried without any success:
.
.
.
/* Creation of a list */
  list_item_L=(Panel_item)xv_create(panel, PANEL_LIST,
		   PANEL_NEXT_ROW, -1,
		   PANEL_LIST_DISPLAY_ROWS, 5,
		   PANEL_NOTIFY_PROC, tmp,
		   PANEL_EVENT_PROC, pep,
		   NULL);
.
.
.
Notify_value pep(item, event)
Panel_item item;
Event *event;
{
  /* If event = ACTION_MENU then don't do anithing, return*/
  if (event_action(event)==ACTION_MENU)
    return XV_OK;

  /*Else call the default event function */	
  panel_default_handle_event(item, event);

  printf("item: %d  event: %d\n", item, (int)event_action(event));
  return XV_OK;
}
.
.

	Email your answer directely to me, I will summarize and post
if enough people ask me to do so.
