Having small issue with Drag and drop.

Implemented Drag and drop in 3 JInternalFrames in a JDesktopPane.  I 
Extended JLabel, implementing the DnD Interfaces, then placed a bunch of 
these in a JPanel in each JInternalFrame.

If the JInternalFrame that a JLabel lives in is not selected, the JVM is 
throwing an InvalidDNDOperationException: Failure to create native peer 
- on the DragSource.startDrag() method.

Since all of this happens in the sun.foo.bar classes I can't even go in 
a look at the code that's throwing the exception.

Anybode else seen this one?  Got any ideas?  I've tried selecting the 
JInternalFrame on mouse-over, but it's klunky and a bit annoying.  I 
also tried to use flags to abort the drag when the drag gesture is 
recognized - but it seems to be ignoring them.

Ugh!

Thanks in advance.
