Hi Xgurus,

I have a multi-form application  in Motif (X11R3, Motif 1.0) in which I 
create XmText widgets as children of a FormDialog and  some other XmText
widgets as children of a regular XmForm.
In my resource file I have  

*XmText*translations: #override \n\
                      <Key>Return: traverse-next()

The *strange* thing is that the translation works just fine for ALL the
XmText widgets that are children of the regular XmForm, but have 
**NO EFFECT** in the XmFormDialog.  What is going on here? 
Is this a Motif bug?  When I change the XmFormDialog to a regular XmForm
the translation works fine!!!!
It seems as if DialogShell is robbing me of my <Key>Return

Pls does anybody know of any workarounds???

Pls E-mail.

ThanX
