I'm trying to create an employee payroll system. Im creating a dropdown menu with JMenuItem Add Employee, and when you click that menu item then it will display another jframe below to enter in all the employee details. I have the add employee JFrame made and it runs perfectly. So i was wondering how do link the two? This is a part of it that might help
public static void main(String[] args) {
final JFrame frame = new JFrame("Payroll");
//create the Employee menu
JMenu employee = new JMenu("Employee");
employee.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_E);
employee.add(new JMenuItem("Add"));
final JMenuItem add = new JMenuItem();
add.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
if (add.isSelected()) {
JFrame f = new EmployeeTaxDetails1();
final JFrame frame = new JFrame();
f.setVisible(true);
frame.setVisible(false);
}
}});

JInternal Frame is a frame within a frame in java so you should probably use JInternalFrame You can learn how to use it here.
