Richard,

Thanks a million!!!  I was having a similar problem with JDBNavComboBox
and switching to JFrame did the trick for me too!

I can't wait until I know enough to actually help someone else.  In the
mean time, those of you that do know enough, please know that your posts
are invaluable to the community.  My personal bacon has been saved
several times already.
