	Mr Sinz is right, the documented procedure would not work.  Why not use
the field as a bit-map, whenever a gadget becomes selected any other gadgets
with which it has a matching bit set, is deselected.

	Example:
Gadget A has bits 2 & 3 set
Gadget B has bits 4 & 6 set
Gadget C has bits 3 & 6 set

	A and B will not deactivate each other but C will exclude both.  If a
gadget has no bits set it neither excludes nor is excluded by any other gadget.
