Hi,
I have a JTabbed Pane with four tabs on it. The first three are quite straightforward, but the fourth one should be disabled at first, then be enabled when some event happens.
So, I initially set a property 'Enabled' fo false : this did nothing. Then I found a property called 'TabEnabled' which, when I set it to false, disables the tab. Great ! So, now, on actionperformed of som button or other, I want to set the TabEnabled property to true again. Alas, I can get at the relevant tab, and I can get at a setEnabled() method but nothing to do with TabEnabled.
So, sticking with just Enabled property and the setEnabled() method, I can't find any evidence of it doing anything ! The Tab is always available.
Any ideas ?

p.s I don't know why I've started appearing as a 'Ranch Hand' ... seems to imply that I know something - but I know nothing !
