..HEY GUYZ...Hey guys...I was trying to link the Input applet with the code such that, when the user selects like the "Edit function" it refers back to the input function with the empty spaces to fill the new Student information

//Marcus Student's Database program. Using Linked List.
//The prog. shud display Menu to user and allow user to select any of the operations
//shown

package studentinfo;

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;




//Student information input Frame

 public class studentinfo extends JFrame {

    public studentinfo()
        {

        setTitle("Student Information Details");
        studID ID  = new JLable("Enter ID:",swingConstant.LEFT);
        FirstN NAME= new JLable("Enter First Name:",swingConstant.LEFT);
        SecondN NAME2 = new JLable("Enter Second Name:",swingConstant.LEFT);
        studCourse COURSE = new JLable("Enter Course:",swingConstant.LEFT);
        studLevel LEVEL = new JLable("Enter Level:",swingConstant.LEFT);

        setSize(450,350);
        setVisible(true);
        setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        pane.setBackground(Color.MAGENTA);



 Container pane = getContentPane();
        pane.setLayout(new GridLayout(4,1));

        pane.add(studID);
        pane.add(FirstN);
        pane.add(LastN);
        pane.add(studCourse);
        pane.add(studLevel);


        }
