Could you please help me with something I am trying to acheive. I am using Java 6 and Eclipse 3.5.0.
I am new to programming generally and have created two java files. Driver loads the UserForm and will go on to control a number of other files eventually. UserForm is just a really basic form to allow data entry which I will tidy up later.
As it stands, when Driver is run, UserForm is called and run, the user can input two numbers for e.g "1" and "5", which (and this is the bit I am struggling with) I then need to send to the Driver script when OK is clicked.
Can anyone help please?
PS I could also do with some way to shut down the UserForm without closing the whole program, ideally after UserForm has been closed, it would relinquish control back to Driver, but I am not sure how to do this either. - any thoughts?
Thanks a lot.

public class Driver
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
//brings in UserForm class and sets it up to be displayed by Driver
UserFormNew userformnew = new UserFormNew();
userformnew.setVisible(true);
}
}And

{
//do something when action performed

return;
}
}
//Need to add listener to ok button object here
ActionListener listener = new ClsOKBtn();
OkBtn.addActionListener(listener);
