Dillan: Those classes are 100% Pure Java, so I have no clue as to why V Cafe or VA doesn't like them. It sounds like, however, that they compile and run fine but that the custom editors in those products don't know what to do with them. No idea there. If you have JB Pro or higher, look at the source. No funny stuff to be found in there. So, I would start by asking either of those products' support teams if there's something special you have to do to implement your own layout manager and have their tools recognize it. -Rich Dillan Fernando wrote: > > Richard > > The reason I cannot distribute XY and GridBagConstraints2 classe, is that > they do not work with VCafe DB edition and VAge.
