      compAdd c1 = new compAdd();
      txt1 = Integer.parseInt(c1.txt1.getText());
      txt2 = Integer.parseInt(c1.txt2.getText());
      txt3 = txt1 + txt2;
      c1.txt3.setText(String.valueOf(txt3));
    }
  }
}

[stultuske]

you are calling this constructor, the default constructor:

compAdd c1 = new compAdd();

but you have only provided a constructor which takes an argument (a String object)

the compiler will create a default constructor for you, so you don't have to write it, but only if it doesn't find any constructors in your code.

so, either you add a default constructor to your compAdd class, or you change the call to the constructor to something like this:

compAdd c1 = new compAdd("some String");

If you don't know java why are you starting with gui when you don't know even the basics of the language?
Start by writing simple console programs and learn how to use classes, extending them . . .
