Thread: A textfield to be filled before the update

Hello guys,
I have a problem with my code.I want a textfield to be filled before the update.So my code

if (textfield.getText().is Empty()){
show message dialog ("Please fill the textfield"); //Shows the message but then continues with the execution and when finish with the update, the request focus is activated
textfield.requestFocus();
textfield.getText();
}

I want the request focus to work before update and then fill the textfield.That is my problem. I hope you understand.

Thanks in advance.

The message dialog is "modal", I suppose, and when the dialog is visible you can't edit the text field. Is it correct?
But when the dialog is closed, if you immediately get the text, the user has no time to type ....
