Good luck trying to convince Borland of a problem there. I also tried to report that bug and got no where fast. I also found a bug in the dbTableModel with showing a different type of data in the pickListbox and got equally as far. This company has the most useless support I have seen. I attempted to claim that the dbSwing pacakge has this defect but in order to do that you have to pay for support. HELLO is this a little bit WRONG. When you purchase a product from a store and find a defect in it do you normally A) Take it back for a replacement. B) Buy $$$ support package so that someone else can confirm it is defective and provide a suitable replacement. ALTHOUGH ID REALLY LIKE TO SEE BORLAND TAKE CARE OF THIS AND FOR SOMEONE TO ADMIT THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM !!! (HINT HINT !!!!) There is some good news. A company called Genimen has had somewhat better luck getting responses and have fixxed a couple of bugs with the jdbTable. Thay also have extended the jdbTable and added three new controls, A checkbox (Which operates on a single click as you think it should) and an editable and non-editable pickList (Which actually work !!) the software package can be retrieved free of cost from www.Genimen.com I won't even get into how ironic it is that I am helping there flaky swwing product by posting here. Im doing so not in Borlands honor but to in some way assist the people like myself who also find the lack of support frustrating. Anyways sorry for venting it is 4am where I am working.... >Where is the appropriate place to submit a bug report or look for other >existing bug reports? > >I have been unable to get JB3 to allow me to put a combo box inside a >table cell/column if I use DecoratedFrame as the top level frame.
