Answer 1

Here are a couple of suggestions.
First suggestion is to use java.awt.CardLayout. This sets up a series of "cards" where only one is visible at a time.
        ActionListener buttonListener = new ButtonListener();
        JButton mainButton = new JButton("Forward");
        mainButton.addActionListener(buttonListener);
        JButton subButton = new JButton("Back");
        subButton.addActionListener(buttonListener);
        menuLayout = new java.awt.CardLayout();
        menuPanel = new JPanel(menuLayout);
        menuPanel.add("Main", mainPanel);
        menuPanel.add("Sub", subPanel);
    class ButtonListener implements ActionListener {
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
            String cmd = e.getActionCommand();
            if (cmd.equals("Forward")) {
                menuLayout.show(menuPanel, "Sub");
            } else if (cmd.equals("Back")) {
                menuLayout.show(menuPanel, "Main");
    }The other suggestion would be to use javax.swing.JDialog. That might be a little cleaner because it could be set up modal. It depends on what your menus look like. Check out this:
