I'm using a focus adapter for each input field and actually found
that invoking requestFocus directly did not help. Instead use:

           SwingUtilities.invokeLater(
               new Runnable(){
                   public void run() { 
                       yourComponent.requestFocus();
                   }
               });

Anyway I like Torsten's remark on this issue (setInputVerifier) which
probably
leads to less cluttered code.

cheers,
