Question In regards to Frames

Question

Good Morning Everyone:
I have a question in regards to Java Frames. I have just created a button in my princial frame and pressing this button creates another Frame. I have two questions relating to these resulting frame:
1)Every time I close the new frame, the old one closes with that one too. Is there a way that I can restrict the "X" button on the top-right corner of the frame?
2)How can I change the co-ordinates of the new frame so that when it appears, it doesn't overlap the existing one? (In other words, I would like to frame to open to the right of the existing frame).
I would highly appreciate a response.
Cordially

Dear Walken16:
I went through the codes and suggestions you posted meticulously. However, I have to lament that it didn't help me in trtying to sour my problem out. What happens is that in my situation, when the user presses a button in the main frame, a second frame appears. However, when one presses the "X" in the second frame, this causes both frames to disappear whereas we only want the second frame to disappear. Below is the code pertaining the second frame that emerges when a button in the first frame is pressed:

public class MyPageFrame extends JFrame{
     public MyPageFrame(){
     super("  My Page");
     //The Image "Q" will be associated with this frame as well. Hence, it awaits implementation
     //setIconImage(ImageLoader.load("images\\mainIcon.gif", this));
     setLayout(new BorderLayout());
     setSize(470, 658);
      addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
        public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
           System.exit(0); return;
    setVisible(true);
    setResizable(false);
    //Let's create 5 panels satisfying the requirements of the BorderLayout
    //First, an array of panels
    JPanel TheNorth =new JPanel();
    JPanel TheSouth= new JPanel();
    JPanel TheCenter = new JPanel();
    JPanel TheEast = new JPanel();
    JPanel TheWest = new JPanel();
     add(TheNorth, BorderLayout.NORTH);
     add(TheSouth, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
     add(TheCenter, BorderLayout.CENTER);
     add(TheEast, BorderLayout.EAST);
     add(TheWest, BorderLayout.WEST);
     //Now, the work to be done in the south panel
     TheSouth.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
     TheSouth.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(400, 90));
     JButton QWebsite = new JButton("AWebsite");
     JLabel Copyright = new JLabel ("Copyright 2005. A Website");
     Copyright.setFont(new Font("Arial", Font.ITALIC, 10));
     JLabel Rights = new JLabel ("ALL RIGHTS RESERVED");
     QWebsite.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(110, 30));
     QWebsite.setFont(new Font("Garamond", Font.BOLD, 14));
     //Let's also create two extra panels to satsfy the requirements of BorderLayout
     JPanel ExtraPanelA = new JPanel();
     JPanel ExtraPanelB = new JPanel();
     ExtraPanelA.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(80, 130));
     ExtraPanelB.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(80, 130));
     //ExtraPanelA.setBackground(Color.red);
     //ExtraPanelB.setBackground(Color.green);
     JPanel CenterOfTheSouth = new JPanel();
     TheSouth.add(CenterOfTheSouth, BorderLayout.CENTER);
     CenterOfTheSouth.add(AWebsite);
     CenterOfTheSouth.add(Copyright);
     CenterOfTheSouth.add(Rights);
     TheSouth.add(ExtraPanelA, BorderLayout.EAST);
     TheSouth.add(ExtraPanelB, BorderLayout.WEST);
     TheNorth.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(400, 70));
     TheCenter.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(100, 200));
     TheCenter.setBackground(Color.BLUE);
     TheCenter.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.black, 1));
     //AddWindow Listener
    addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
        public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
            System.exit(0); return;
