For example....

In mydatabase, I have a column name 'username' and I want to display all the contents of that 'username' in JTextArea..

What shall I do and what classes I need to have in order to perform this..
I hope , you can give me a sourcecode or even sites to where I can learn about this one.

JTextArea.append()
or you can use setText() of JTextComponent as JTextArea.setText("My String");

And have a class that reads from the database and gets the data you want to display in a String, or an array, or in whatever you want.
You call that class in your gui and display the results like peter_budo said.
As you can a lot of things are involved. Where are you having problems? In reading the database or displaying the gui.
Remember, don't put all in one class. Try to separate functionalities. One class for the DB, one for the GUI. Test both before you start calling one into another
