SYNOPSIS
void DXmActivateWidget (widget)
Widget widget;

DESCRIPTION
The DXmActivateWidget routine allows an application to generate the same highlighting and callbacks that would occur if the user clicked on a push button. Using this routine in your application enables you to maintain a consistent user interface. For example, your application could allow a user to choose a function by either pressing a push button or, if the DXmActivateWidget routine has been called, by selecting a menu option that activates the corresponding push button.
The DXmActivateWidget routine only supports push buttons.
