Modal window help

hi all,

I need to put a modal window in my app, a sort of 'please wait...' window that blocks all (ALL! :) ) user input during a time-consuming operation. I also need to be able to change the message during the time-consuming operation.

A Jdialog doesn't fit because it requests user input.

What I need is something like this:

<prepare'please wait...' window>

<set window as modal>

startLongOperation();

<close modal window >

Any suggestions?

TIA
