Is it possible that you have migrated an application which
was initially developed using JBuilder 1?  If so, you
should change the "extends Dialog" to "extends JDialog".
There are other changes you need to make as a consequence.

  this.setLayout(...); -> this.getContentPane().setLayout(...);
  this.add(...); -> this.getContentPane().add(...);
