Assume I start a java app whose GUI contains a couple of entry fields (and labels).
Initially I can fill these entry fields (resp. labels) with some values.

Once the GUI dialog is displayed the user is normally able to enter something else.
But AFAIK the content values can NOT be updated by the prgm resp. a remote server AFTER the display.


Out of morbid curiosity..

Can you describe a use-case* where this actually
makes any sense?

(Good call on setting the follow-ups to c.l.j.help only,
though it might pay to warn these poor c.l.j.programmers
why they may not see their own replies!)
