Hi all,

I'm using Borland's JDK 1.1.6 and I am having difficulty setting the
focus in a JDialog.  I traced into the requestFocus call, and saw that
the component must be visible, so just for fun I made the dialog
non-modal and called requestFocus after calling setVisible(true).  It
still doesn't work.  Is it possible to set the focus within a JDialog?
TIA

Paul
