Ok so I've got two JFrames and I'm trying to make the buttons in the
frames open a new class in the same window one class is GUIMain and one
class is GUICustomer... here's the code can anyone help me???

GUIMain:

{
public void windowClosing(java.awt.event.WindowEvent
evt)
{
exitForm(evt);
}
});

Ok so I've got two JFrames and I'm trying to make the buttons in the
frames open a new class in the same window one class is GUIMain and one
class is GUICustomer... here's the code can anyone help me???

That depends.

First comment I'll make is this. It does not require 429
lines of your code for us to tell that you have no clue
what you are doing.

When posting code examples, please trim them down
to an SSCCE. <http://www.physci.org/codes/sscce>

Secondly, your statement of what you are trying to do is
not very clear to me, what do you mean by 'in the same
window'? 'open a new class' - what class?
GUIMain/Customer? Something else again?

Third, you have not asked a specific question.

So.. post an SSCCE (< 100 lines), explain exactly
what you are trying to achieve (with reference to the code),
and ask a specific question, and that help is more
likely to happen.

(Oh, and, same deal with the subject of this one,
such vague titles underline how little you have
actually thought about these problems)

And lastly, please fix that sticky '?' key.

Sorry Andrew I'm new at this and thanks for the pointers.

In respect to these lines of code:

private void jButton1MouseClicked(java.awt.event.MouseEvent evt)
{
// Add your handling code here:customer

}

How do I make this MouseClicked action open the GUICustomer.java file?

Sorry if that's not straight forward enough, any help is really greatly
appreciated and thanks in advance.

Sorry Andrew I'm new at this and thanks for the pointers.

No worries - we were all new once, and if there's one
mistake the 'old dogs' can make is presuming they
do not need to learn *more*. ;-)

How do I make this MouseClicked action open the GUICustomer.java file?

OK - it seems this conversation is effectively split
across two titles. I have decided to concetrate on
the other one* (it has code, and further comments
questions).
