Code:

// Construct the Birds menu - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
        JMenu birdsMenu = new JMenu ("Birds");
        birdsMenu.setMnemonic ('B');
        menuBar.add (birdsMenu);  

        birdsMenu.add (new ListAction ("Birds"));
        birdsMenu.add (new MaintainAction ("Birds", this));

I can't get my Mnemonics to work! This code compiles but the underscore doesn't work when executed.

Thanks.

What O/S and JVM are you using? There appear to be several bugs related to setMnemonic() on Windows based O/S's.

I am using Windows XP Professional and I think the JVM is 1.4.1_01 (I think that's what you mean?).
