Hiya !

  public void CentrerDialogue() // Center dialog
    {
    Dimension Ecran    = getToolkit().getScreenSize();   // screen size
    Dimension Dialogue = this.getSize(); // dialog size

    setLocation ((Ecran.width - Dialogue.width) / 2, (Ecran.height -
Dialogue.height) / 2);
    }

This center the dialog according to the screen size. If you give the size of
the frame parent, it should work.
Hope this helps, Pascale
