Displaying Text on a JFrame

[MikeMarq]

I'm trying to display text in the shape of a cross on a JFrame using 4 JTextAreas but when I do all of the JTextAreas display correctly except the last one which ends up in the upper left corner. It is always the last item that ends up in the wrong spot. For instance I tried creating the west one first and it was then fine but then south became wrong. Here's the display code thanks in advance for your help. Mike

	JFrame frame = new JFrame();


	//north
	jtextnorth = new JTextArea ("North" + '\\n' + party\[0\] + '\\n');
	jtextnorth.setLocation(150, 0);
	jtextnorth.setSize(100,100);
   	frame.add(jtextnorth);
   	
   	//east
   	jtexteast = new JTextArea ("East" + '\\n' + party\[1\] + '\\n');
	jtexteast.setLocation(300, 150);
	jtexteast.setSize(100,100);
	frame.add(jtexteast);
	 
	//south
	jtextsouth = new JTextArea ("South" + '\\n' + party\[2\] + '\\n');
	jtextsouth.setLocation(150, 300);
	jtextsouth.setSize(100,100);
	frame.add(jtextsouth);
	
	//west
  	jtextwest = new JTextArea ("West" + '\\n' + party\[3\] + '\\n');
	jtextwest.setLocation(25, 150);
	jtextwest.setSize(100,100);
	frame.add(jtextwest);  


	frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT\_ON\_CLOSE);
	frame.setSize(400,400);
	frame.setVisible(true);
