SCENARIO:
	Five string Gadgets set up on a window.
PROBLEM:
	Want to be able to cycle through them one at a time, putting strings
	in them and going on to the next one when I press return.

	I know about the SELECTED flag and i've tried using it by
	setting it and calling RefreshGadgets(). Obviously this function
	is only a graphical refresh function because although the cursor
	appears in the string gadget, the keyboard input is still
	arriving at my UserPort and not going to the gadget. 

	How do I, by software, select a string gadget so that I can
	type in data as if I had selected it with the mouse?

	Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

	Thanks 	S.F.Paine

P.S. Does anyone know when the ROM kernel manual (latest release, libraries) 
will be available here? I understand it has been released in the USA. Is 
this correct?
