This post is a follow on to my post to Oliver.
Please read it first.

In this situation, I would ask..
"So what is going to go *inside* centerPanel,
and why is it not logical for centerPanel to be

As a wider question, is this 'Please Wait' message
more suited to a JProgressBar in a floating
JDialog or JOptionPane?
