Make sure you set your Look & Feel to the Windows (platform default) 
Look & Feel, or it will continue to look strange.

You need to learn about MDI applications in Swing.  JBuilder will help 
you design menus for your frames, and panes for your dialogs, but you'll 
have to learn how to wire them together too.  You need a good Swing 
book.  This is a good online resource:

Start here for some basic MDI information:
