Hi Sebastian,

Have you considered using the "Send_Event" keyword to Widget_Control? You'll
have to build the event structure, but it would do exactly what you want.
For example, assuming your event below is a button (simplest example:-) you
could:

Widget_Control, myWidget, Set_Value={ID:myWidget, TOP:myTLB, HANDLER:0L,
SELECT:1L}

If you don;t know the ID of the top-level base (myTLB), you *could* use
Widget_Info to find it I guess, but the best would be to pass it through.

Does this help?

Dave
