I am using Motif V1.0 on a Siemens MX500.

According to the OSF/Motif programmers reference manual, the XmNmwmDecorations
resource (of a widget derived from a Vendor Shell) can be set to affect the
window frame displayed by MWM. From looking a the X11/MwmUtils.h file it seems
that one should be able to go:

n=0;
XtSetValues(args[n], XmNmwmDecorations, MWM_DECOR_MENU); n++;
shell = XtCreateApplicationShell("example", topLevelShellWidgetClass,
				 args, n);

and then the window will be displayed without (sic) a menu button.

This is not true with my system. Is this a bug that is fixed in V1.1
(which I hope to get shortly) or is there something else I have to set
up to do this?

Any help is greatly appreciated; please email because my news feed has 
been a little erratic lately (I'll post a summary if requested).
