Hello All,

I am a total nub to JDE programming. I am trying to develop a Consent Notice that will pop up every time a user turns on their handheld. Nothing elaborate just a something like a Hello World program that pops up after start. This is what I have so far.

package com;
import net.rim.device.api.ui.*;
import net.rim.device.api.ui.component.*;
import net.rim.device.api.ui.container.*;
import net.rim.device.api.system.*;

/*
 * BlackBerry applications that provide a user interface
 * must extend UiApplication.
 */
public class Notice extends UiApplication
{
        public static void main(String[] args)
        {
                //create a new instance of the application
                //and start the application on the event thread
                Notice theApp = new Notice();
                theApp.enterEventDispatcher();
        }

        public Notice()
        {
                //display a new screen
                pushScreen(new NoticeScreen());
        }
}

//create a new screen that extends MainScreen, which provides
//default standard behavior for BlackBerry applications
final class NoticeScreen extends MainScreen
{
        public NoticeScreen()
        {
                //invoke the MainScreen constructor
                super();

                //add a title to the screen
                LabelField title = new LabelField("Consent Notice",
                       LabelField.ELLIPSIS | LabelField.USE_ALL_WIDTH);
                setTitle(title);

                //add the text I've read & consent to terms in IS user agreement to the screen
                add(new RichTextField("I've read & consent to terms in IS user agreement."));
        }

        //override the onClose() method to display a dialog box to the user
        //with "Thank You!" when the application is closed
        public boolean onClose()
        {
            Dialog.alert("Thank You!");
            System.exit(0);
            return true;
        }
}

I have the project set to Auto-Run on Startup. I can see the app starting in the debugger, just can’t get it to pop up in the foreground like I need it to. Any ideas on how I can get my app to pop up on startup?
