     Glad it was helpful.  Daniele Futtorovic's suggestion of
using putClientProperty() looks better, though -- certainly
more general, and more powerful.

     (You probably didn't find setName() in JTextField's Javadoc for
the simple reason that it isn't there, or "almost isn't there."  If
you look closely, you'll find it mentioned in one of the lists of
inherited methods: setName() is a method of java.awt.Component, and
therefore of all Component's descendants.  The putClientProperty()
method is also inherited rather than JTextField-specific, this time
from javax.swing.JComponent.  Moral: When you're looking for a method
in some class or other, don't forget to look at the ancestry.)
