Problem with PropertyChangeListener and JTextField

Question

I'm having a problem with PropertyChangeListener and JTextField.
I can not seem to get the propertychange event to fire.
Anyone have any idea why the code below doesn't work?
* NewJFrame.java
* Created on May 15, 2005, 4:21 PM
import java.beans.*;
import javax.swing.*;
* @author wolfgray
public class NewJFrame extends javax.swing.JFrame
implements PropertyChangeListener {
/** Creates new form NewJFrame */
public NewJFrame() {
initComponents();
jTextField1.addPropertyChangeListener( this );
public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent e) {
System.out.println(e);
/** This method is called from within the constructor to
* initialize the form.
* WARNING: Do NOT modify this code. The content of this method is
* always regenerated by the Form Editor.
private void initComponents() {
jTextField1 = new javax.swing.JTextField();
jScrollPane1 = new javax.swing.JScrollPane();
jFormattedTextField1 = new javax.swing.JFormattedTextField();
setDefaultCloseOperation(javax.swing.WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
jTextField1.setText("jTextField1");
getContentPane().add(jTextField1, java.awt.BorderLayout.NORTH);
jFormattedTextField1.setText("jFormattedTextField1");
jScrollPane1.setViewportView(jFormattedTextField1);
getContentPane().add(jScrollPane1, java.awt.BorderLayout.CENTER);
pack();
* @param args the command line arguments
public static void main(String args[]) {
java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
new NewJFrame().setVisible(true);
// Variables declaration - do not modify
private javax.swing.JFormattedTextField jFormattedTextField1;
private javax.swing.JScrollPane jScrollPane1;
private javax.swing.JTextField jTextField1;
// End of variables declaration
}

If you want to listen to changes in the textfield's contents you should use a DocumentListener and not a PropertyChangeListener:

And please use [co[/i]de]  tags when you are posting code (press the code button above the message window).
