Java Programming

Hello,

I am developing an application for a touch screen computer. In windows, when you have a touch screen most textboxes when given focus come up with a little icon to bring up the on-screen-keyboard.

I'd like this to happen in our java application. I don't think there is a feature like this built in and I think I could emulate it if I could just give the windows on-screen-keyboard focus from Java. Does anyone know of a way to give a non-java window focus?

I was thinking it might be possible to do it from a batch file which java could then run or something if i can't do it from java directly.

Thanks for any help

Joe
