Multiple Frames and Visibility

Question

Hi All,
I am working with swings.
I have two Frames say A and B.
Frame A creates the instance of Frame B. Frame B accepts inputs from user forms the reqiuest. Then sends request to Agent and waits for response. Before sending request and receiving response I am closing the frame B window.
But now Frame components of A is ot seen properly.
Once the Frame B receives the response components of Frame A is seen.
I want components of Frame A to be visible all the time.
How can I do that.
I hope I have clearly stated the problem.
Thanks

Hi,
I think problem is due to single process.
But I tried with threads. I am facing the same problem.
Here is the sample code.
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.lang.*;
public class TestProgressBar extends JFrame implements ActionListener
JProgressBar     progressBar;
     JButton               start, end;
     public TestProgressBar()
          super( "Test Progress Bar" );
          setSize( 200, 200 );
          setResizable( false );
          progressBar = new JProgressBar( 0, 100 );
          progressBar.setValue( 0 );
          progressBar.setStringPainted( true );
          start = new JButton( "Start" );
          end = new JButton( "End" );
          start.addActionListener( this );
          end.addActionListener( this );
          getContentPane().setLayout( new BorderLayout( ) );
          getContentPane().add( start ,BorderLayout.WEST);
          getContentPane().add( end,BorderLayout.EAST );
          getContentPane().add( progressBar,BorderLayout.SOUTH );
     public static void main( String args[] )
          TestProgressBar test = new TestProgressBar( );
          test.show();
     public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent ae )
          String action = ae.paramString() ;
          if( action.endsWith( "cmd=Start" ) )
               progressBar.setString( "Do" );
               TestTwoFrame twoFrame = new TestTwoFrame( progressBar);
               twoFrame.show();
               twoFrame.send();
          if( action.endsWith( "cmd=End" ) )
               progressBar.setString( "Completed" );
               System.exit( 0 );
     class TestTwoFrame extends JFrame
          //int count = 0;
          JProgressBar progressBar ;
          public TestTwoFrame( JProgressBar progressbar )
               super( "test progress" );
               setSize( 100,100 );
               progressBar = progressbar ;
          public void send( )
               dispose();
               progressBar.setString( "Doing" );
               TestThread testT = new TestThread( 200000000 );
               //testT.yield();
               testT.start();
     class TestThread extends Thread
          int count =0, loopCount;
          public TestThread( int loopcount )
               loopCount = loopcount ;
          public void run()
               while( count < loopCount )
               count++;
Thx
