Hi all,

I am a new beginner to Java Programming. In my application I am loading
an xml doc in JFrame, while doc is loading I would like to see a
progress bar above the J frame.

This is what I did:

I created a modal JDialog with a progress bar, to be able to show the
dialog above the frame. But if I do that then it freezes the loading of
the xml doc in my Jframe. In other words, only after I close the
JDialog I am able to load the document in my JFrame. Hence, the whole
point of showing a progress bar  while loading the document is missed.

How to get over this problem. Can anyone please help.

Any input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Nathan
