I am still not sure what the question is, but note that if you can find your way back to the 'root' JFrame/JWindow etc., you can use that as the owner of the JDialog. Methods that might help with this are possibly..* JComponent.getRootPane(), or a loop that asks for the Component.getParent() until getParent() returns 'null' (that Component will be the JFrame or JWindow). * ..and I am sure there is a method that actually returns the JFrame/JWindow directly, but I cannot recall what it is, at this moment. -- Andrew Thompson http://www.athompson.info/andrew/ --- * Synchronet * The Whitehouse BBS --- whitehouse.hulds.com --- check it out free usenet! --- Synchronet 3.15a-Win32 NewsLink 1.92 Time Warp of the Future BBS - telnet://time.synchro.net:24
