I am having a problem updating the laf of my java program.

I have changed the laf using:
    UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());

which works fine, then I use successive calls to:
    SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI();

to update container component laf in my main window.

The problem is, when I call SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(mainMenu); 
it does not update the laf of all of the menu items themselves. Only some of 
the menu items take the new laf and some do not????

Anyone have any idea what could be causing this? Or how to fix this?
