This is the line of code I was trying to get you to look at.  You are
using an XYLayout, but you are not specifying an XYConstraint object
when you add it to the container.

But that said, I really wonder why you are using XYLayout in the first
place.  It sounds like you are trying to directly manage the size and
position of the buttons, so what does the layout manager do for you?

Take a look at the Java Tutorial on the Sun web site.  The Swing
section should cover this.
