have you tried updating your java?
(use search 'java' & update)

In case you haven't found it:

String [][] menuInput ={{"File", "Edit", "Windows", "Help"},{"Open","Cut","First","About"},{"Close","Paste","Second", null},{"Exit","Copy",null, null},{null, "Select All", null, null[B],[/B]}};

I think it is the extra ',' you have at the end:
{null, "Select All", null, null,}

thanks
