Yeah Anne, I had this problem myself.  All you have to do is when you
first introduce components e.g.

TextField TextField 1;

declare it outside of the constructor class, at the top, as a static
variable.  That is:

public class CDRequestFrame extends MyBasicFrame
{
  Label label1 = new Label();
  XYLayout xYLayout1 = new XYLayout();
  Button button1 = new Button();
  List list1 = new List();
  Label label2 = new Label();
/**
These are all displayed at the top, allowing me to access the values
elsewhere.  If this doesn't work, stick the word static before them.

  public CDRequestFrame()
  {
    try
    {
      jbInit();
    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }
  }

etc.etc.
