Okay, you asked for it!!!! :)

Yes, but somehow I keep missing that control.  I'll dig around some more 
and see if I can find it.

Actually, what I'm looking for is a grid control similar to a grid you 
woud find in Excel or other spreadsheet packages.  After I sent my 
message last night I went surfin' and found GtkSheet, which appears to 
be what I want.  I will, however, have to come up with a Euphoria 
include file for the control.  I can't remember the web site off the top 
of my head but I just googled GtkSheet and the link was in the first 
page of results.

I also caught the message that you had updated your GTK package but were 
working on the documentation.  I'll be anxious to see what you've added.
