Thanks!

someone else had already replied (privately) saying the same.  I must say Gtk# 
is very nice to work with... but it's a _huge_ adjustment.  Oh well, thx for 
the help.  

Btw, is it ok to post questions like these to this mailinglist? or is this 
list focused more on the development of gtk#?
