requestFocus problem

Hello,

I have tried using requestFocus , requestFocusInWindow , and using a thread and calling

requestFocus using invokeLater , however none of the above methods are putting the focus on the textField. However if I unfocus the window my app is running in , then refocus the window , the JTextField

then gets focus. What can I do to have the textField grab the focus right away? Dont know

if it matters but my textField is visible in a JSplitPane , I call requestFocus from another component in

the "other" pane of the splitPane.

Thanks,

Jason Davis
