Michael: Beans are identified in the mainfest file (mf) of their archive. Quite a few items in swingall.jar are flagged as "not beans" and JBuilder has to honor that setting. You may be disappointed re: dragging and dropping JDesktopPane. It (like JInternalFrame) was never intended/designed for use in a RAD environment. It's one of many JFC items that are best handled "in code", which is how JFC was designed. We're working with Javasoft to impress upon them the desires of many people to have visually designable items in any IDE <g>. -Rich Michael A.
