Problem Controling Focus

Dear Group:

I am writing an applet GUI that accepts a great deal of user input and
therefore requires a great deal of validation. My validation methods
work fine in JBuilder 4.0 but when I run the applet in Netscape enter
incorrect data, such as a bad date, the component.requestFocus() call
fails and the next component gains focus. I obviously want focus to
remain on the component where the incorrect data was entered so that the
user can correct it.

Any help much appreciated!

Nathan
