A simple question

[Rylogy]

Hi. I need someone to point me in the right direction. I have about 70+ lines of code under a button; I was wondering how can I make it so that the code is elsewhere, but when I press the button it calls that action(that way I don't have to repeat the code to other actions). Any examples/suggestions? Thanks.

 private void button1ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {                                        

        xystr = textField1.toString();
        XorY = xystr.charAt(0);

        angle = Double.parseDouble(textField2.getText());

        xy = Double.parseDouble(textField3.getText().substring(3));
        result.setText("Length = " + textField3.getText().substring(3) + " with ");

        if ("x".equals(textField1.getText())) {
...

That's already a method that's being called from the ActionListener's actionPerformed(...)
