It is highly unlikely that this has anything at all to do with JBuilder.  
JBuilder 4 comes with JDK 1.3 and JBuilder 3 comes with JDK 1.2.  It is 
likely that the difference is with the JDK you are using.

As to what the problem is, it is hard to tell.  I am pretty sure there 
are no limits on the _number_ of components that can be added to a 
container.  You may be running into a layout manager problem.

This sounds like you are not packing the frame.

If you can reduce this to a small runnable program that demonstrates the 
problem, then posting it would be a very good idea.
