From the error message, it look like you are entering "asdasd" to jTextField1. This value you are trying to parse to float. Float.parseFloat(string) will throw a NumberFormatException if the String is not a numeric. In parseFloat() method, the string parameter will be converted to a primitive float value.

You can check the value entered is numeric or not and then parse it to float.

float rec1 = 0;

   if(isNumeric(receive)){
       rec1 = Float.parseFloat(receive);
       if(rec1 < total){

         JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Insufficient Amount");

       }
   }else {
          JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Enter a Valid Amount");
            c.jTextField1.setText("");
         }

The method is

 public static boolean isNumeric(String s) {  
    return s.matches("[-+]?\\d*\\.?\\d+");  
}
