I am making a quiz, where questions are stored in a textfile. I wish that when i call the file containing a set of 10 questions, the questions instead of being displayed in a dialogue box using JOptionPane, i wish that they are displayed instead in a JFrame, where the user can also type his answers. Can someone pls help me? Thanks a lot.

This is the code:

Code:
