Aloha All!
    Thanks for the replies, with all your help I solved the problem.  No I was
not using HeloisMouse.  I am not using a Requestor window.  I was opening a
normal window, and then I wanted to activate a string gadget on it.
Stuart Ferguson suggested that I use something like this:
         Delay(5L);
         ActivateGaget(...

And this worked just fine.  It seems that ActivateGadget operates asyncronsly
(sp?)  so the Delay just hangs around until the OS can catch its breath.

Thanks to all who responded, mahalo!
