I'm wondering if there are any packages that do form management under X windows. I realize some widget programming would be a solution but no widget sets are available at this time. Has anyone heard of a prepackaged form management system for X windows? Thanks Chance Younkin

They have a utility with their OpenLook GUI builder which uses row-columns to achieve *some* of the functionality of a Forms management tool, but not what people have come to expect in a forms management tool. He said specifically that they do not market their GUI builder as a Forms management tool. If anyone does come across something, specifically something that is built with Motif, I would be interested in knowing about it. -- Larry Poleshuck Citibank 111 Wall Street New York, NY 10043 Phone: 212-657-7709 Fax: 212-825-8607 E-Mail: uunet!ibism!lcp

Too bad it isn't a full-fledged XView object though... Frank G.
