this is a interesting thing !.
two wrong occasions
First Occasion
XmNrightAttachment, XmATTACH_WIDGET,
XmNrightPosition, vsep1,
// where vsep1 is a widget and check XmNrightPosition is written
Second Occasion
XmNrightAttachment, XmATTACH_WIDGET,
XmNrightWidget, 78,
// 78 is a positional placement.
on the first occasion , no problem during execution, but the widget looked wiered.
on the second occasion , run time error at XmNrightWidget, 78
why the first occasion did not produce any errors.
have anybody come across like this and if so any explanation.

Try this...
First Occasion
XmNrightAttachment, XmATTACH_WIDGET,
XmNrightWidget, vsep1,
//Where vsep1 is a widget
You can also specify an offset between the attached widgets.
XmNrightOffset, 5,
Second Occasion
XmNrightAttachment, XmATTACH_WIDGET,
XmNrightWidget, 78,
// 78 is a positional placement.
This will probably work; however, I would think that the following might be better.
XmNrightPosition, 78,

thanks for ur suggestion. but my question was not on how to attach widgets, but why there were no errors on the first occasion as u could see i have given a widget as XmNrightPosition
instead of a position itself. and i did the opp. in the second occasion , it gave run time errors.
i saw ur reply , u have changed the first occasion with XmNrightWidget, but i have written it as XmNrightPosition.
XmNrightAttachment, XmATTACH_WIDGET,
XmNrightPosition, vsep1,
so what i am wondering is , how does motif process XmNrightPosition ...
hope you understand my question ...

Actually, I`m surprised by the error in the second case, although you don`t say what it is. I`d think that the XmForm code pays attention only to the attachment type, which you don`t specify above.

yes the widgets are form widgets,
XmForm code pays attention only to the attachment type, which you don`t specify above.
what do you mean by this, in both the cases i say what is the attachment type, ie XmATTACH_WIDGET
i am not clear why this is happening.
thanks in advance

I think this is simple
(int)vsep1
is a valid position.
(Widget)78
is almost certainly going to point to something that is not
a Widget structure.
