I think you can just manage the Apply button if it's not there, but I haven't tried using it outside of a DialogShell, so I don't know. There's no way to directly add buttons to the bottom. However all selection boxes will accept one child, and you can put anything you want in it. Alfalfa Software, Inc. | Poste: The EMail for Unix nazgul@alfalfa.com | Send Anything...
