I don't think you can. They are a convenience feature 
not a necessity. But the same can be said of standard dialogs, 
message boxes etc. You could build all of those from basic 
widgets but it woulfd be a pain. Sometimes Control variables 
save you some pain.

Personally I don't bother with them much but others like them.
