public class Program3 extends Frame implements ActionListener, WindowListener 
{
    private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
 	
 	Frame DispFrame;

public static void main(String[] args)	
{
	new Program3();
}
	Program3()
	{	
		//Frame
		DispFrame = new Frame("My first window");
		DispFrame.setBounds(20,20,300,900);
		DispFrame.setLayout(null);
		DispFrame.setResizable(true);

What do you mean "cannot get it to work"?

What exactly is, or is not, happening? Are you getting compiler or error messages? If so, post them, completely.

Here are the errors that i am getting when i try to run the code.

thanks in advance for any help. Im really stuck here:icon_eek:

Take a look at these two lines of your code, and tell me if you see the problem.

Button OKButton = new Button("OK");
		OkButton.setLocation(200,150);

i looked over it and through all of my notes.. i do not know what is wrong

Pay close attention to the capitalisation of "O(Kk)".

oohh OK i got it. thanks..
