Project that exhibits the error.

Basically I was trying to move components around and jSeperator1 collapsed horizontally on it's own and the when I try to expand it back out, I get this exception. It is stuck in the position it is and I can't fix it without deleting it.

This was the wrong project.

I am sorry, I am not able to reproduce this issue and the attached stack-trace
is not sufficient to track the problem down. Are you still able to reproduce
it? If so, could you, please, provide more details? It would be ideal to attach
the problematic form (both .java and .form files) saved in the last good state
and describe _exact_ steps that lead to the exception. Thank you in advance.
