Thanks for your assistance, Gilmer. I got a very good suggestion in another newsgroup. This is really what I want: UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName()); That is, every user should have the native GUI of his/her platform. Having said that, I still have the same problem (I always get the metal L&F no matter what my code says). Since a lot of my applet's code is placed there by JBuilder, what I need to know now is where (in what method) should I set the L&F? Regards, -Ramon Gillmer J.
