I have a tabbed pane with two tabs and respective JPanels...

In each of the JPanel i have some components say JTexField, JTextArea e.t.c..

Now the problem is when i shift from one tab to another tab, one of the component should have the focus..

I have tried with grabFocus() method but it did not solve my problem..
Is there any other way of solving the problem

From the API for grabFocus()
his method is intended for use by focus implementations. Client code should not use this method; instead, it should use requestFocusInWindow().
