This is a relatively simple question.

I am using the Hp widgets and Xt intrinsics shipped with X11R3. 

I am creating a ScrolledWindow widget and placing a text edit widget
inside it (as the only child).  

The textedit widget has the following resources set:

	XtNwrap to XwSoftWrap
	XtNscroll to XwAutoScrollVertical.


When the textedit widget is not inside the scrolled window, every
things works fine.  However, when it is a child of the scrolled window
it doesn't scroll at all (no big suprise I suppose).  

What I would like to know, is there a method that would allow the scrollbars 
of the scrolled window to be updated as the user moves around in the text.  
Conversely, is there a way that the scrollbars can affect the text widget.

I assume that I could probably solve this problem with a series of callbacks,
I was hoping that there would be some way that it could be handled 
automagically.


Thanks in advance,
