Hi,
I defined a simple action class (AccionAlta) to test actions functionality;
when I create a button in another Frame class (FrameBanco) referencing the
action class, I get the following error:

Hit uncaught exception java.lang.ClassCastException

----------
The Action Class is:

package lyr;

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class AccionAlta extends AbstractAction
{

  public AccionAlta()
  {
    putValue(Action.NAME, "Alta");
    putValue(Action.SMALL_ICON, "icons/db insert.bmp");
    putValue(Action.SHORT_DESCRIPTION, "Alta" );
    putValue(Action.LONG_DESCRIPTION, "Alta de un nuevo registro");
    putValue(Action.MNEMONIC_KEY, "A");
    putValue(Action.ACTION_COMMAND_KEY, "Comando Alta");
  }

  public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
  {
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Acci�n Alta!",
"Hey!",JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
  }
}

-----
The error arises in the last line of the following code of FrameBanco class,
that references the action class:

package lyr;

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import com.borland.dx.dataset.DataModule;
import com.borland.dbswing.*;
import com.borland.jbcl.layout.*;
import java.awt.event.*;


public class FrameBanco
    extends JFrame
{

  AccionAlta accionAlta = new AccionAlta();

  protected DataModuleLyR dataModuleLyR;
  BorderLayout borderLayout2 = new BorderLayout();
  JMenuBar jMenuBarBanco = new JMenuBar();
  JMenu jMenuArchivo = new JMenu();
  JMenuItem jMenuItemSalida = new JMenuItem();
  JMenu jMenuEdicion = new JMenu();
  JMenuItem jMenuItemAlta = new JMenuItem(accionAlta);  // Error

------------

I appreciate any help please.

Thank you,
Guillermo
