Netbeans nightmare Converting a JFrame class to a JApplet Class

Question

Hello im not exactly new to java but im having problems getting my applets to work when i try other peoples example applets they always work but mine never seem to. here is what i am doing i wrote a card game in VB6 long story short i completely rewrote it in java because only ie supports ActiveX.
It works awesome as a stand alone App whilst in Jframe and with a main() sub.
I tried about 15 tutorials on how to convert a jframe to a applet with no success i always got errors and applet never loaded in browser.
then i found these tips on how to do it "really easy" of course when my applet loads and im not sure it even really does i get nothing but a grey box i never seem my components a bunch of jlabels with icons loaded that look like card images it all looks great in the design tab of NetBeans. I never see any of the controls in browser. These are the links to the two tutorials that spawned my trying this. http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=57965&tstart=0 http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?threadID=57965&tstart=0
well to quote this guy it feels like its going to take 100 years to figure this out google has a million links to junk when i try searches and sun has no great help for searching either on their documentation. my program is rediculously low tech and i cant seem to get it to do anything or work at all as an applet.
my class looks like this: i removed all the constructor code as it was making post too long my applet shows up normal in the preview window of Netbenas but just a grey square of browser not sure whats wrong please someone help me.. Thanks You

You shouldn't start a new thread when you've already created a recent one with the exact same subject matter:
[http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5447497|http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5447497]
And my advice in the previous thread still stands. Put your program in a JPanel so it's environment-agnostic, then create two wrappers for standalone apps and applets.
(or just use Java Web Start)
Also your program has all sorts of other problems. This is terrible coding:
private javax.swing.JLabel jLabel37;If you need lots of labels that all have the same meaning, put them in a collection. Give things meaningful names. etc.
If that code was generated by Netbeans....then this is an example why you shouldn't use code generation tools...
