Hello,

Martin Schultz has written a set of object based GUIs for just the kind of
thing you are looking for. You can find a link to his resources at either
Liam Gumley's links page (www.gumley.com) or David Fanning's
(www.dfanning.com). Martin's GUI for the text field can be realized with
built in 'Cancel'/'Accept' or 'Dismiss' buttons.
