Hi Brenda,

> I don't see a 'FileChooser' listed for SWT or Swing.  Is that functionality 
> not supported by eclipse?

javax.swing.JFileChooser isn't on the palette but you can still use it 
with the VE.  For any class that isn't on the palette use "Choose Bean" 
which is the 3rd option on the palette (and also on the toolbar) and 
just choose the class by name.

For SWT there is a class org.eclipse.swt.widgets.FileDialog.  We don't 
support this with the VE however, although looking at why it wouldn't be 
hard to - we just need rules to cope with the may it is constructed and 
then we can allow it to be dropped.  Please open a bugzilla feature 
request for us to do this.

Best regards,

Joe Winchester
