Alex:

Try a component.repaint() after the property set (or a doLayout() on
the container).

Nothing to do with jbInit().

repaint() on property set is a good habit to get into -- esp. if you
are going to move on to Swing.

If you see something that looks like an opinion up there,
it's mine and mine alone.

Mail sent to me from the newsgroups won't bounce but will
be ignored.  If I have time, I'll respond, but you  have
a better chance if you confine your posts to the newsgroups
