I have written 2 classes. First class calls the second class that extends JDialog. This class will then spawn a window that has a few radio buttons and a sumbit and cancel button.

I have everything coded up but when I launch the jbInit(), which returns a boolean value, from my main class it executes before the sumbit or cancel button is selected. I need hte main class to wait until the submit or cancel button is selected.

Could anyone show me an example or explain how this would work?

Thanks,
Randy

Are you starting the JDialog as a separate thread? If yes, then you should use the join() method to have the main class wait for the JDialog execution to complete.
