       DXmCSTextStatus DXmCSTextReplace(
	       Widget widget,
	       int from_pos,
	       int to_pos,
	       XmString value );

PARAMETERS

       The  identifier	(widget ID) of the compound string text widget.  An integer that represents the first character position of the text being
       replaced.  An integer that represents the last character position of the text being replaced.  Replacement text for  part  of  the  current
