Drag events in Robot class

Question

I am using the Robot class in jdk1.3.1 to record and playback user input. I am getting the list of events and then traversing on it to do the appropriate action, mouse move, key events are played back fine, but I am unable to do mouse drag event.
Here is simplified version of the code:
for(int i = 0; i < aListEvents.size(); i++)
AWTEvent event = (AWTEvent)aListEvents.get(i);
Component c = (Component)event.getSource();
int id = event.getID();
switch(id)
case MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVED:
int x = ((MouseEvent)e).getX();
int y = ((MouseEvent)e).getY();
m_robot.mouseMove(x,y);
break;
case KeyEvent.KEY_PRESSED:
m_robot.keyPress(((KeyEvent)e).getKeyCode());
break;
case MouseEvent.MOUSE_DRAGGED:
     // do component drag
break;
Is there a way to mimic the drag event during playback and drag the object that was dragged during record?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks :)

This is an old posting, so the answer is probably too late for mamta and has also been answered elsewhere. But for whoever comes across this one, share my piece of experience:
There's no one-to-one mapping between Java events and the system events (which is what Robot is refering to).
After all, a MOUSE_DRAGGED is nothing but a MOUSE_MOVE after a MOUSE_PRESSED. So you can send a MOUSE_DRAGGED along to the robot as a mouseMove, because the Robot/system keeps in mind that the mouse button has been pressed before and therefor the event will appear in the Java event queue as a MOUSE_DRAGGED.
Similar is MOUSE_CLICKED which needn't be replayed at all, because sending a MOUSE_PRESSED and a MOUSE_RELEASED to the Robot will automatically produce a MOUSE_CLICKED in the Java event queue as well.
Same with the key strokes.
