Hi everyone.
I work with JBuilder2.01 and  JDK1.2.1.  Recenly in my application, I've
tried to set a focus on a particular JButton in my JForm when the form is
creating. But the focus always go to the first added JButoon. Neither
requestDefaultFocus(), nor requestFocus() is working. Default focus is
painted (border around button ) when setDefaultButton() is called, but the
actual focus remains on first added component. I've tried with
FocusManager - focusNextComponent(), setting the next focusable item to be
my desired  Button,  but I've failed again. Maybe I do something wrong? I
don't want to use programmable click on item to get the focus - this is not
a clear decision, but in my case this is a only way to get the focus.
Is this a Swing bug or it's a problem of JBuilder ? Pleace if You know how
to set a focus on a particular item - tell me.

Thank You in advance.
