      If you are trying to capture those textfield values for use in the main application frame (I think this is what you are
      doing...pls clarify q if not) all you need to do is call the getText() method on your textbox from inside the dialog box,
      probably when user performs a specific action like presses a button, or any exits the frame, etc. Remember that if you
      want to capture events from inside the dialog box you need to add an event listener to a component, like a button or
      textbox, or the dialog box itself, depending upon what you are doing) and then the values will be available to you for
      any method calls etc. See example below, where the ActionListener is added to the dialog box.:

      public class myDialog extends Dialog implements ActionListener
      {
      ... (more stuff goes here)

      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae)
      {
      ...
      info = myText.getText();
      ...
      }
