you can put it in the addNotify method after calling super.addNotify() - that
way
you dont have the overhead of requesting focus in each paint call. But once the
ok button
looses focus for any reason, then the enter key will not do anything. The only
way I know
around that is to have the frame add a keyboard listener to all the components
that are on the
frame that do not do anything special with the Enter key
