Creating GUI window. Newbie help needed

Question

Hey all this is the first time i am building a GUI box for school. Can you kind of help me out here. I think i am doing this all wrong. Can you point me in the direction of setting up a Blank box just so i can then play with it from there trying to add JButtons, JLabels and all that other stuff. This is what i was trying and i know its way wrong.. haha thanks
import java.io.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class LetterProgram
public LetterProgram
setTitle("Letter Conversion Program");
setSize(100,50);
setVisible(True);
setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
}

Answer 1

import javax.swing.*;
public class MyJFrame extends JFrame {
  private int returnCode = 0;
  public MyJFrame () {
  public MyJFrame (String title) {
    super (title);
  protected void frameInit() {
    super.frameInit();
    setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
}You should start from here.
put every thing u want into ExitableJFrame's constructor.
You will need a main method to creat a JFrame.
and then setVisiable(true); some sort of stuff there.
GOOD LUCK
