I have a little Swing applet comprising a few buttons and a text field.  I
want the focus to start on the text field and stay there (i.e. it will never
go to the buttons- which are operated by accelerator keys), but I don't see
how to do that.  I have tried myTextField.requestDefaultFocus() and
myTextField.requestFocus (in both init() and jbInit() ), but neither does
the job.

Can anyone help?
thanks,

James
