Owen, You are absolutely right about using the appropriate GtkEntry libraries. I discovered my problem arose from attempting to use a table to lay out the form. Tables seem determined to attach a widget to the left and right sides of a cell. I experimented with a horizontal box and GtkEntry libraries and got the results I was looking for. Thanks for the help and to all for being tolerant with the missteps of a GTK newbie. Bobby King <bking321@xxxxxxxxxxx> P. S. Does anyone know a solution to the FC2 KVM-mouse problem? There are lots of complaints about this problem on "Linux Questions", but no solutions.
