Hi,
I'm a newbie so be nice!  I can't figure out how to call a 2nd frame/window
from the menu of the first frame/window.  In the main app the program calls
"frame.setVisible(true)" after creating a new frame1.  So now frame1 is
visable and with a menu.  In my "actionAdapter" for a menu item I have
frame2 newframe = new frame2()
newframe.setVisible(true);

But nothing happens.  All I want to do is call and open a new
screen/form/jpanel from a menu.

I hope this makes sense!
