Thanks John.  It is all working now.

I am curious, though. Please consider the following lines of code:

    getContentPane().add(jLabel2, new XYConstraints(277, 108, 94, 65));
    getContentPane().add(jLabel1, new XYConstraints(17, 23, 753, 548));

I noticed that each time I put one or the other to the back, the order of
these statements gets changed when I look at the source after making the
change.  This is the sequence I needed to get everything to work (jLabel2 is
the invisible label and jLabel1 holds the picture).  Is it described
somewhere that the order in which components are added to a pane determines
their Z-order, and that the last component added will be behind the first?
None of the references I have used describe this (in fact one says that if I
want to control Z-order, I need to use the layered pane).

Thanks again

Ted
