help in using jlink RetrieveMaterial

I am trying to assign material using the RetrieveMaterial method but it
will not compile in java. The documentation for this is not clear to
me. Any help would be appreciated.

h:\proe_nt\jlink\TepsMenu.java:340: cannot resolve symbol

symbol : method RetrieveMaterial (java.lang.String)

location: interface com.ptc.pfc.pfcModel.Model

&nbs p;
model.RetrieveMaterial ( (String) materialCombo.getSelectedItem() );



&nbs p; ^

1 error

It turns out that when this method is called from within an action
listener, it hangs. If I move it to a method called by the action
listener it still hangs. Any ideas on what in Java or Jlink is causing
this?



Thanks

PTC Help came through on this one. I had created a JPanel which spawned
a new thread, which gave undesireable results. Changing to a JDialog
set to modal fixed the problem.
