Heeres) Organization: Johns Hopkins University Lines: 22 I have spent the morning reading the osf documentation and I cannot seem to find the answers. 1. I am using a XmForm widget and I want to use the resource file to tell it how to arrange the widgets. When I give it the widget name for the leftWidget resource it tells me that it cannot convert string to widget. How do I do this? 2. I want to specify a pointer cursor to be used by a widget. The only thing I could find was menuCursor. I would like to specify it for other widgets. How do I do this? thanks ken -- ========================================================================== Kenneth J.
