I am new to Java programming and want to whether it is possible to get the windows native look in Java GUI applications. Obviously Swing won't work.

Use the following:
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());
Read UIManager and How to Set the Look and Feel for more information.

Try this....
The syntax is:
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(PLAF); (Pluggable Look and Feel)
So, you must include the below 3 lines.
UIManager.setLookAndFeel("com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel");
SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(frame);
updateComponentTreeUI(frame);
SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(frame) is used for refreshing the frame after the change.
