Like Lori stated, you will have to learn to use Layout managers. Either that or use the newer Matisse GUI Layout. It is not available in JB 2-2006. I am not sure whether 2007 has it or not (I do not have my copy yet). Tools that do have it include NetBeans 5.5 and myEclipse. Matisse allows you to do Drag and Drog GUIs that automate the Layout Manager positions for you. This means it works more like the RAD tools for Windows, Delphi, BCB, Visual Basic. Using JB 2006, you will need to learn what layout managers are and how to use them. JB is not Delphi and Java is not Delphi! :)
