I think you can just use the "items" attribute to set the form of the cho=
ice
control. Something like:

    c <- choice ...
    ...
    set c [items :=3D ["hi", "there"]]


Furthermore, I think you need to use the "dynamic" attribute on the
layout of the choice control.

    set f [layout :=3D .... dynamic (widget c) ... ]


I hope this helps,
All the best,
  Daan.
