I ended up figuring it out. So it goes something like this...
==================
int layoutID = 0;
if (1 == 1)
layoutID = R.layout.Layout1
else
layoutID = R.layout.Layout2
RemoteViews views = new RemoteViews(context.getPackageName(), layoutID);
AppWidgetManager gm = AppWidgetManager.getInstance(context);
gm.updateAppWidget(new Component("myPackageName",
"myPackageName.WidgetName"), views);
=====================================
When you get the RemoteViews object using the constructor, you will tell it
which layout you want to load, then just update the widget using the
AppWidgetManager.
