Hello Tor,

Thank you very much for your reply !

Could you please give me a short example how to "eat the KeyEvent" ?

My problem is: I know how to write a KeyListener that is called when a key
is pressed (released / typed) but what does the listener have to do to stop
the textField from adding the new letter to the text ?


    textField.addKeyListener(new java.awt.event.KeyAdapter() {
      public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {

         // I think this is the place to do something very smart, isn�t it ?
         // the Question is: WHAT ?

      }
    });
