Please be aware of the warnings given by Sun in the JDK at time of writing regarding serialization of Swing objects: "Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. A future release of Swing will provide support for long term persistence."
