Autoanswer:
I can determine if the Widget is an instance of whatever class and
then cast it to get the appropriate object:
Widget fieldItem = hPanel.getWidget(i);
if (fieldItem instanceof TextBox) { // TextBox ?
TextBox dataItem = (TextBox) fieldItem;
dataSet[i][1] = dataItem.getText();
} else if (fieldItem instanceof CheckBox) { // CheckBox ?
CheckBox dataItem = (CheckBox) fieldItem;
if (dataItem.getValue()) { dataSet[i][1] = "TRUE"; }
else { dataSet[i][1] = "FALSE"; }
} else if (fieldItem instanceof TextArea) { // TextArea ?
TextArea dataItem = (TextArea) fieldItem;
dataSet[i][1] = dataItem.getText();
}
