The actual problem is that I have an array of "possible gadgets",
which are each only valid within a given date range. In most cases,
I know the actual date range, so I build the gadget list on the fly
and then display the GTList.

In this particular area, the user has to enter the date range.

What I'm trying to do is read the date range, add the GTStrings to the
GTList and redisplay it. I guess DetachGTList + Attach GTList would
do it, but I'm not sure whether this would lose the already input
data. I was rather hoping there might be a AddGadgetsToGTList
command under some alias.

Oh, well, I'll try it out and get back to you.

Cheers
