     NAME
          MrmFetchWidget - Fetches and creates any indexed (UIL named)
          application widgets and its children

     SYNOPSIS
          #include <Mrm/MrmPublic.h>

          Cardinal MrmFetchWidget(hierarchy_id, index, parent_widget, widget, class)
               MrmHierarchyhierarchy_id;
               String    index;
               Widget    parent_widget;
               Widget    *widget;
               MrmType   *class;

     DESCRIPTION
          The MrmFetchWidget function fetches and creates an indexed
          application widget and its children.  The indexed
          application widget is any widget that is named in UIL.  In
          fetch operations, the fetched widget's subtree is also
          fetched and created.  This widget must not appear as the
          child of a widget within its own subtree. MrmFetchWidget
          does not execute XtManageChild for the newly created widget.

          hierarchy_id
               Specifies the ID of the uid hierarchy that contains the
               interface definition.  The hierarchy_id was returned in
               a previous call to MrmOpenHierarchyPerDisplay.

          index
               Specifies the UIL name of the widget to fetch.

          parent_widget
               Specifies the parent widget ID.

          widget
               Returns the widget ID of the created widget.

          class
               Returns the class code identifying MRM's widget class.
               The widget class code for the main window widget, for
               example, is MRMwcMainWindow.  Literals identifying MRM
               widget class codes are defined in Mrm.h.

          An application can fetch any named widget in the uid
          hierarchy using MrmFetchWidget.  MrmFetchWidget can be
          called at any time to fetch a widget that was not fetched at
          application startup.  MrmFetchWidget can be used to defer
          fetching pop-up widgets until they are first referenced
          (presumably in a callback), and then used to fetch them
          once.

          MrmFetchWidget can also create multiple instances of a
          widget (and its subtree).  In this case, the uid definition
          functions as a template; a widget definition can be fetched
          any number of times.  An application can use this to make
          multiple instances of a widget, for example, in a dialog box
          box or menu.

          The index (UIL name) that identifies the widget must be
          known to the application.

     RETURN VALUE
          This function returns one of these status return constants:

          MrmSUCCESS
               The function executed successfully.

          MrmBAD_HIERARCHY
               The hierarchy ID was invalid.

          MrmNOT_FOUND
               The widget was not found in UID hierarchy.

          MrmFAILURE
               The function failed.
