When I set a JTextField's editable attribute to false, it stays white -- I'd
like it to be greyed out like the Windows standard for a read-only edit-box.
Is there an easy way to do this or do I have to change the color myself?

The problem is, I don't want to change colors if I don't have to because it
looks fine in other "Look&Feel"s, like Java L&F for instance.

Thanks for any help!
