Hello Friends,

i have two screens A and B ok..

when i press "logout" in A screen i will get B screen as a new pop up screen.

the problem is when we have to press "cancle" button in B screen it has to come to same A screen .

that means i have to destroy that B screen object completely...
and come to screen A..

The main Requirement is to come back to the old A Screen and i should have full fuctionality normal in Screen A and screen B should dissapear... completely.....

Screen B is in Different class....

Thank you very friends
bye...

If "screen B" is simply a confirmation screen ("are you sure you want to log out"), I'd use a modal dialog to prompt the user without leaving "screen A".
If "screen B" is a fully-featured screen, I'd use Card Layout to flip between the screens without destroying them.

the thing is the screen B look like "it has as User text box and Password text box ,OK button ,CANCEL button & EXIT button so

The process is when he click to logout from Screen A then he goes to Screen B.
and If he thinks to go Back to Screen A then he clicks CANCEL so this time
This Screen should destroy and i have to go back to Screen A

Java doesn't have screens. You need to be more specific about what you're doing. Including a runnable example might help.

you can write following lines in your code:

setDefaultCloseOperation(HIDE_ON_CLOSE);

//and following action listener of cancel button

cancelButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
setVisible(false);
}
});

I'm a bit lost with the description too, but this may handle your problem

add an actionListener to frameA's logoutButton, and in actionPerformed(..)
[frameA].setVisible(false):
new FrameB([frameA]);//include code for visibility of FrameB, if required

now, in the code for FrameB:
1) include a reference parameter (to frameA) in the constructor
2) add a windowListener, and in windowClosing(..) frameA.setVisible(true);

frame.setVisible()
and
frame.dispose()

are the only two things you need
 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
