Till now, I was using VB for developing applications. Now I have to use Java for developing the front-end. I am quite confused with the Components. Need help.. A book reference or site reference would also do the job.
Basically, I will be using MenuBar, ToolBar, a Frame with JEditorPane. Now if I want to use a small window which will be a child form, to write some notes, of the master frame, which Component should I use?
I guess you're looking for a JDialog or a JPanel. Follow the Swing tutorial. It has detailed guidelines for every component, and has a visual index of all the components.
