java version "1.4.0-beta3"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-beta3-b81)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0-beta3-b81, mixed mode)

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class TestGetScreenLoc extends JFrame{
	JTextField tf;
	Robot robo;
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		System.out.println("Hello World!");
		new TestGetScreenLoc();
	}
	TestGetScreenLoc() {
		super("TestGetScreenLoc");
		setSize(200,200);
		getContentPane().setLayout(new FlowLayout());
		tf = new JTextField("Testing screen location.");
		getContentPane().add(tf);
		setVisible(true);
		try {
			robo = new Robot();
		} catch (Exception e) {
			System.out.println(e.toString());
		}
		Point pt = tf.getLocationOnScreen();
		System.out.println("Location of JTextField is >> " + pt);
		robo.mouseMove(pt.x, pt.y);
