I think I read in a "Hints and Tips" somewhere that JBuilder locks up
when you put the new Swing components (I'm assuming you mean the
candidate release for JDK 1.2) on the palette.  JBuilder automatically
expects to find swing stuff in the com.sun.java.swing package - since
the new stuff is now in the javax.swing package, it gets confused. 
Basically, I don't think you can do it until they fix it.  Want more bad
news?  Borland or Inprise (whatever they call themselves) said they
weren't going to do anything about it since they considered the location
of the swing components to be unstable.  Nice, eh?  Just me, but I think
Borland is about to take a serious market hit...

I know it doesn't help, but it may be information you hadn't heard.
