[gtkada] simple gtk_editable question

              You "Clark, G L" <g.l.clark at lmco.com> who had written:

because get_chars(Create_Database_Dialog.New_Database_Entry) can return 
another amount of chars than 40

You could do sth like this

declare
   name : String := get_chars(Create_Database_Dialog.New_Database_Entry);
begin
   ...
end;

or

FORM_DATA.NAME :=
get_chars(Create_Database_Dialog.New_Database_Entry)(1..40);
