I see what you mean - the problem is that I should have been clearer in my
reply :-).
I meant that you should add that code snippet in the OK Button's
ActionListener. Later, I did notice your post to Anand about the dialog not
knowing whether the panel has a table or not. I would suggest that you
create a panel that conforms to some interface say Editable. In the
interface has an acceptEditedValues() method and let the panel decide what
to call - that snippet if it has a table or nothing if not needed. The
dialog will now work only with Editable panels and in the Ok Button's
actionListener you can call editablePanel.acceptEditedValues().
Ofcourse, this is not a Swing specific solution but in the light of all the
issues you are facing do you think this might be the cleaner solution?

Sachin
