But also, you might try these methods listed in the JavaDocs java.awt.Component.getLocation(java.awt.Point) (as well as getX(), and getY() ). -- Andrew Thompson http://www.physci.org/ Message posted via http://www.javakb.com --- * 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
