Alas, this was a java issue with the theme on my computer... For more information you can go to http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=667836 I set my theme to Windows Classic and everything worked fine. Incidentally, I am running Java 1.5.0_06

I loaded it on another of our developer laptops running Windows 7 Pro and it did the same thing, but I loaded it on one running Windows XP Pro and it seems to work fine. The second and third laptops were identical except OS so it must either be a video card driver issue or an issue with the Windows 7 visual options, I'm thinking.

I just downloaded & installed iReport 3.7.4 on my Windows 7 Pro laptop and while the program is loading up I get the following error message... java.lang.NullPointerException at java.awt.Dimension.<init>(Dimension.java:91) at javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicProgressBarUI.getPreferredSize(BasicProgressBarUI.java:757) at javax.swing.JComponent.getPreferredSize(JComponent.java:1615) at org.netbeans.modules.progress.ui.NbProgressBar.getPreferredSize(NbProgressBar.java:90) at org.netbeans.modules.progress.ui.StatusLineComponent.<init>(StatusLineComponent.java:137) at org.netbeans.modules.progress.ui.ProviderImpl.getDefaultWorker(ProviderImpl.java:59) at org.netbeans.progress.module.Controller.getProgressUIWorker(Controller.java:128) at org.netbeans.progress.module.Controller.getVisualComponent(Controller.java:111) at org.netbeans.progress.module.ProgressVisualizerProvider.getStatusLineElement(ProgressVisualizerProvider.java:55) at org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.MainWindow.getStatusLineElements(MainWindow.java:245) at org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.MainWindow.decoratePanel(MainWindow.java:219) at org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.MainWindow.initializeComponents(MainWindow.java:183) at org.netbeans.core.windows.view.DefaultView.showWindowSystem(DefaultView.java:519) at org.netbeans.core.windows.view.DefaultView.windowSystemVisibilityChanged(DefaultView.java:498) at org.netbeans.core.windows.view.DefaultView.changeGUI(DefaultView.java:180) at org.netbeans.core.windows.ViewRequestor.dispatchRequest(ViewRequestor.java:269) at org.netbeans.core.windows.ViewRequestor.processVisibilityRequest(ViewRequestor.java:258) at org.netbeans.core.windows.ViewRequestor.postVisibilityRequest(ViewRequestor.java:195) at org.netbeans.core.windows.ViewRequestor.scheduleRequest(ViewRequestor.java:117) at org.netbeans.core.windows.Central.setVisible(Central.java:119) at org.netbeans.core.windows.WindowManagerImpl.setVisible(WindowManagerImpl.java:776) at org.netbeans.core.windows.WindowSystemImpl.show(WindowSystemImpl.java:87) [catch] at org.netbeans.core.NonGui$2.run(NonGui.java:183) at java.awt.event.InvocationEvent.dispatch(InvocationEvent.java:209) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(EventQueue.java:461) at org.netbeans.core.TimableEventQueue.dispatchEvent(TimableEventQueue.java:104) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java:242) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java:163) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:157) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:149) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(EventDispatchThread.java:110)
