     NAME
          XmCreateSelectionDialog-The SelectionBox SelectionDialog
          convenience creation function

     SYNOPSIS
          #include <Xm/SelectioB.h>

          Widget XmCreateSelectionDialog (parent, name, arglist, argcount)
               Widget    parent;
               String    name;
               ArgList   arglist;
               Cardinal  argcount;


     DESCRIPTION
          XmCreateSelectionDialog is a convenience creation function
          that creates a DialogShell and an unmanaged SelectionBox
          child of the DialogShell.  A SelectionDialog offers the user
          a choice from a list of alternatives and gets a selection.
          It includes the following:


            ⊕  A scrolling list of alternatives

            ⊕  An editable text field for the selected alternative

            ⊕  Labels for the text field

            ⊕  Four buttons


          The default button labels are OK, Cancel, Apply, and Help.
          One additional WorkArea child may be added to the
          SelectionBox after creation.

          XmCreateSelectionDialog forces the value of the SelectionBox
          resource XmNdialogType to XmDIALOGSELECTION.

          Use XtManageChild to pop up the SelectionDialog (passing the
          SelectionBox as the widget parameter); use XtUnmanageChild
          to pop it down.
