I just (i'm at my home pc now) received the IDL 5.0 help files from
somebody. So no need anymore for the PDF or similar.

It would also help if anyone could provide with me with a digital copy of an
IDL 5.0.3 manual. (PDF or something)

If they had only made an option similar to the ones in Microsoft Word: Save
as Word 95, Save as Word 97 etc..
I know I am a lazy programmer :-)

I have doubts about the GUI Builder in the best
of times. But there is no way it is going to
write code that will run in IDL 5.0.3. New
keywords, etc. to make the GUI Builder work
were introduced after that.
I'm afraid you are going to have to write
this widget program by hand. The good news,
of course, is that you will learn exactly
how and why widget programs work. :-)
Cheers,
David
