Well, I can get it all to work now. I don't know what I was doing wrong the first time. Glowing seems to work with both the default lighting and other lights, however, if you choose not to use default lighting you must have a light on the object that is glowing. When you use lights other than the default the glow object tends to glow more. In my case, I took a cube, coloured it red, and made it transparent enough so that you could see another cube in-behind it. (think of the red laser doors in the lightsaber daul in Star Wars: Epi. I) It became more difficult to see the second cube when I rendered the scene. Anyway, thanks for the help. I now know how to make objects glow.
