Yes, that is the case.

I only commented it out because it didn't do what I had expected. I may
uncomment it if it helps to achieve the end result.  I was simply hoping
there was a method I could call that, given the TreePath object, would
simply automatically select the desired node.  But that wasn't the case with
setSelectionPath(path).

The JTree in the SaveAs dialog box is identicle to the one on the main
interface, except that it shows only the directories, no leaf nodes.  So I
know that whatever node is chosen in the SaveAs dialog box, the same node
exists in the JTree on the main interface.  Once a node is chosen in the
SaveAs dialog box I capture the TreePath object and send it to an instance
variable in another class for retrieval by the method I was showing you
earlier.

Hope this helps clarify things,
