This is not a multi-post as you can see from my header.  I have 
rephrased my question in the hope that I might get an answer that I can 
understand.

Since my local Borders book shop does not hold a single book on Jbuilder 
    (Plenty on the Microsoft equivalent) and since my question was on 
topic I thought I might get some help -  Alas it was not to be.

I did work out the answer (no thanks to you)  you add the JPanel to your 
form you select the layout property and select the XY Layout manager.
then you can put your controls where you like.

How difficult was that ?
