Hi,
   Consider this code:

public class Button extends JFrame
{

  JButton btn = new JButton("Click Me!!!");

  public Button()
  {
    setTitle("Nothing");
    setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    getContentPane().add(btn);
    btn.setToolTipText("Please Click Here.");
    btn.setBounds(5, 5, 50, 25);
    btn.setAction(new AbstractAction()
                  {
                    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
                    {
                      System.out.println("Clicked!!!");
                    }
                  });

    this.setSize(new Dimension(100,35));
  }

  public static void main(String []args)
  {
    Button btn = new Button();
    btn.show();
  }

}


On running this program, the button neither has text nor tootip. On
debugging I found that after doing a 'setAction()' for the button, the
text and tooltip text were set to null. Any Idea why this should happen?
