Split the JTree

[zed420]

Hi All

I wonder if someone can help. I'm trying to split the JTree into two JPanels so the Root and "Parents" can be in one JPanel and the "Child" can be in another. Folders(root & parents) are on left and Files(child) are in centre. I've managed to do it so it's error free but the result is a "dot" displays where root/parents should be and an area of textfield displays where Files are meant to be. why ??? why can't I see the Folders(root & parent) and files(child). Many thanks in advance

Thanks
