	How does one change the focus from a text field in one
panel to a text field in a different panel in the same window?
I'm using XView 3.0.

	xv_set (panel, PANEL_CARET_ITEM, another_item, NULL);
	This code only works in the same panel.

	Thanks
	David

   Use the WIN_FOCUS attribute for the panel:

		   xv_set (panel, WIN_FOCUS, PANEL_CARET_ITEM, another_item, NULL);



that's WIN_SET_FOCUS, and beware of race conditions....

Use the WIN_FOCUS attribute for the panel:

		xv_set (panel, WIN_FOCUS, PANEL_CARET_ITEM, another_item, NULL);
