How do I do form.show

[Allen Chan]

Hi all,
I wonder if anyone could give me some ideas about how to click an button and pop up a new window just like form.show in vb?
Thanks in advance.

I don't know any VB, so I may be missing the point of your question.
Create a button, assign an ActionListener to the button. In the actionPerformed method of the ActionListener, create a new JFrame or JDialog.
I do something like this when the user books a flight. After they select a flight I pop up a JDialog that prompts them to select from a JList the number of seats they want to book.

JOptionPane is like a simple popup window. JDialog would be used for a more complicated popup window.
