This is different.  I needed to make a change to the JFileChooser 
(forgot what at the moment, but I can check it), so I needed access to 
the Browse button that brings up the JFileChooser, not to the 
JTextField which contains the path name.

There were also a few other reasons for accessing the button in some 
earlier attempts at what I'm working on.  I wanted to get the size and 
make my components match the width of the browse JButton.

Currently you can get the JTextField, but NOT the JButton for browsing 
for the file.

I'm using a class, AlteredPathSecectionPanel, and the only difference is 
it has that one short method in it that returns the JButton for 
browsing.
