JFileChooser, multiple dialogs.

Question

My JFileChooser is getting the path and filename for a file, to be later opened. I'm placing the path and name in a JTextField.
My problem is this: whenever I click 'Find' and select my file and click 'Open', the path and filename show in the JTextField, but the dialog reopens as though I'm pressing the 'Find' button again.
Here's my source:

Answer 1

The problem is with he registration of actionListener for the find button.
This is being done in your code each time the AddNewItem is being
used. because of this each time you click Add New Item. another listener
is registered for the find button and hence the no. of times it will
show filechooser will keep on increasing.
