Hello, I'm going to have to walk away from my computer for a bit to cool down, but I have to ask for some help before I do. I had a great website reference that explained very well how to use the GridBagLayout manager, but unfortunately I didn't bookmark it. It explained how one should use the XYLayout manager and then convert to GridBagLayout. All that would be left would be some tweaking. If anyone knows what site I'm talking about, please let me know. I'm trying to create one panel using the GridBagLayout manager. This panel has two rows. The top row will have 7 columns (0-6). The bottom row will have 12 columns (0-11). I originally laid everything out in JBuilder3 using the XYLayout manager and then converted it using the GridBagLayout manger. The problem is that all of my components are not lined up properly in their assigned columns (i.e. many are hidden or partially covered up) within each row. I tried to resize and adjust the components and the columns, but every time I get something in one row looking right all of the stuff in the other row is totally screwed up. If anyone has any advice other than not to use GridBagLayout, which I'd love to if I could help it, please reply--especially if you know of any online tutorials that are usable. Thank you. Jeff
