colLabels[i].addMouseListener(new MyAdapter());

private class MyAdapter extends MouseAdapter {
@Override
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent event) {

     ColJLabel colJLabel = (ColJLabel)event.getComponent();

     System.out.println(colJLabel.ColID);

     setColumnHeader(false);
    }
}

colLabels[i].setEnabled(flag);

The situation is this: Mouse clicks are trapped correctly but when i have the JLabel (ColJLabel) control disabled it still reports mouse clicks.

How can I make so that mouse clicks are only reported when the control is enabled?

Thanks.
