I tried mailing you an answer but jvk as a mailing address doesn't
get very far :)

Anyway, here's my stab at it...

Could you put some sort of checking mechanism in the UVALUE associated
with each text field. Perhaps a UVALUE.NEXT flag. Check the UVALUE when
an event activates the callback, and if it is set, move to the next
field. If it is not set, don't move. I guess you would also need a
method of storing the widget ID of the next field, but again
you could use UVALUE.NEXT_ID. The only tricky bit would be to
fill this structure field correctly when you construct the
Widgets.

Hope this is some help. Sorry if I have totally misunderstood what you
were trying to do :)
