Awesome!  Thanks.  I saw that DockWidget last night as I was reading
around and I guess I just thought it had something to do with the task
bar or something--stupid me for not checking it out anyway.

The KDockWidget looks like it is exactly what I needed.  That way all
parts of the program could be brought out into separate windows for
those that don't like the single window approach.

UTSL? -- let me guess, Use The Search Line? :-)  Next time I'll remember
that... thanks.

I'd like to use the KPart idea but that will have to come later, as this
is my first KDE Application and I'm still learning C++ and getting the
hang of things, so right now the simpler the better :-)

Well, thanks again for your help,

Jason
