Hi dharini,
you can have both modal and non modal dialogs in swing.
JDialog defines following constructors.
------------------------
JDialog()
Creates a non-modal dialog without a title and without a specified Frame owner.
JDialog(Dialog owner)
Creates a non-modal dialog without a title with the specifed Dialog as its owner.
JDialog(Dialog owner, boolean modal)
Creates a modal or non-modal dialog without a title and with the specified owner dialog.
JDialog(Dialog owner, String title)
Creates a non-modal dialog with the specified title and with the specified owner dialog.
JDialog(Dialog owner, String title, boolean modal) Creates a modal or non-modal dialog with the specified title and the specified owner frame.
-------------------------
In first two and fourth constructors the created dialog is non modal .while in rest of the constructors u can pass true/false depending on whether u want your dialog to be modal/nonmodal.
hope it helps
regards
deeksha
