2846.0. "Accelerators on Window widget" by METIS::FARRELL () Thu May 31 1990 17:32

    
    Hello,
    
    I am having a lot of trouble with the accellerators.  I have accel's
    on some of my push button's in some pulldown menus on a menu bar.
    
    My program is majorly made up of a Window widget.  I want to install
    the widget's accel's on this widget.  I can do an installallaccel() on
    both the toplevel & main_window_widgets, but if I try either an
    installallaccel() or installaccel() with the Window widget as the
    destination, I get an access violation.
    
    Could someone tell me what I am doing wrong?
    
    thanks,

My guess is that you are running across a bug which occurs when you do
translation "things" to a widget that doesn't have any translations.
Try giving the window widget some translations before installing the
accelerator.
