Carlos,

  That would be obvious to me, except .... I've been working on a more
complex program and using Glade to set up the GUI. If there was anything in
the docs that note a plain ol' window can be written to and read from then I
missed it. So, looking at the widgets made available by Glade I missed the
obvious.

Thanks,

Rich
