Hello,

I'm trying to implement a class which will allow me to simulate Drag and Drop.
I've decided to use the panel because it seems to be the most general
Container.  I can basically add what I want to it which suits me fine.  If I'm
wrong, please let me know, I'd be interested in your input.

There's one thing I don't understand though.  How can I have a panel
containing, say, a Graphics object, a button and a label respond to mouse
events?  In other words, how can I force a Container (in this case my Panel)
to respond to events instead of its components responding?

Another question is, how can I put a border around a label?  For that matter,
how can I put a border around any graphical component i.e. button, frame,
panel, etc.?

I'm finally getting the hang of this.
