Order of focus for swing components

Question

Hi All,
I am in search of the way to definine the order of focus for swing components.
I have a JPanel to which I can add multiple JButtons and JLabels. My problem is that when ever JButton comes, it should get the focus even though JLabel exists.
If I drag the JButton on to JLabel then also it should be placed on top of the JLabel.
Can any body help me to solve this problem.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Roja.

Hi,
I am giving my sample code here.
          if (textButton != null) {
               setUserTextPresentFlag(true);
               textButton.setFocusPainted(false);
               textButton.setContentAreaFilled(false);
               textButton.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder(0, 0, 0, 0));
               textButton.setBounds(
                    editPosX,
                    editPosX,
                    textButton.getWidth(),
                    textButton.getHeight());
                    textButton.setRequestFocusEnabled(true);
//                    textButton.grabFocus();
                    textButton.requestFocus();
System.out.println("requestFocus isDisplayable::"+userTextImageButton.isDisplayable()+" isEnabled "+userTextImageButton.isEnabled()+" isFocusPainted "+userTextImageButton.isFocusPainted()+" isVisible "+userTextImageButton.isVisible()+" userTextImageButton.hasFocus() "+userTextImageButton.hasFocus());
I am getting the following values for the system.out.println values.
isDisplayable::false isEnabled true isFocusPainted false isVisible true userTextImageButton.hasFocus() false
I didn't find a method to set displayable to true.
could u find where the problem is?
Thanks in advance,
