I honestly don't even know what I did to cause this and I'm kind of in a panic. A made this beatuiful program and was making some finishing touches by putting an about box in. I got to launch it and the window come up fine, but I can't click on ANYTHING it's almost like my applicaiton went modal without me telling it to, and I've debugged time and time again and can't find what happened. I have to use eclipe debugger to stop the application. I'd post code but I wouldn't know what to post. I'm coding in Java

Any info would be nice.

Have you tried removing the "finishing touches"?

Odds are, something was added that started dependendent code to have problems.

Please note, I don't know Java, but do know C++ -- Which I believe is simular.
Either way, I would personally start undoing any recent changes to the code until
it is resolved. Then try to find out why.

that's just it, i've almost deleted the entire program, to see if something was causing it, and no luck.

Hi gdi1942,

I assume the about box you implemented to your GUI is a Dialog or its child JDialog.
There's a specific method called setModal. Did you try it ?

Example :

JDialog jd = new JDialog();
.
.
jd.setModal(false);

Try running it on a another machine, and see if it still crashes when run.
