Hi.
Fisrt things first. I bought the book �Mastering Java2 (J2SE 1.4) by John Zukowski.Complete with a companion cd. That's what i started learning Java from. Then went on to download netbeans hoping to make life easier, and the learning curve better.
What i am working on is a small farm-office application where i have a list of activities/farm operations in a JComboBox (too big for JButtons) in a JDesktopPane. From this list,i would like to be able to select an entry/item and have the programm open a new JTabbedPane or JDesktopPane which will contain the appropriate data for the activity.
Any help in this direction will be grestly appreciated.

Hi.
I am new to java, and took the plunge by downloading netbeans 6.0(and j2se, jdk1.5).
I've learnt to create basic desktop apps,but get very frustrated by not being able to link items in say a JComboBox to their various JTabbedPanes or new windows(other containers),which I can then go on designing to create a useable application.Not necessarilly web apps. Not even applets. Just programs to run on a stand-alone pc.
The idea of struts only serves to throw me off-track. I tend to feel I'm deviating from what I reallyset out to do in the begining:learning java programming. Is struts the only way of doing this?
Please help me out here.
