Thanks a lot for your commends. Kevin, thank you for the pointer. I have always used the method you describe in the past, but in my simplified example (actual case is much more complex) I needed to avoid immediately returning from the eventHandler method. I eventually solved the problem by introducing a useless modal dialog (I used it as a way to re-route the event dispatch thread to allow me to continue posting events to the Swing thread without exiting the original event handler). David, I have not tried using the framework, but by reading the description it absolutely sounds like a very elegant solution to my problem and would allow me to avoid using the ugly modal dialog hack. Thanks a lot for the reference! I greatly appreciate the help! Tony.
