private Button b20, b21, b22, b23, b24, b25, b26;

public GridExample() {
f = new Frame("Contoh Grid");
b1 = new Button("1");
b2 = new Button("2");
b3 = new Button("3");
b4 = new Button("4");
b5 = new Button("5");
b6 = new Button("6");
b7 = new Button("7");
b8 = new Button("8");
b9 = new Button("9");
b10 = new Button("10");
b11 = new Button("11");
b12 = new Button("12");
b13 = new Button("13");
b14 = new Button("14");
b15 = new Button("15");
b16 = new Button("16");
b17 = new Button("17");

}

public void launchFrame() {
f. setLayout (new GridLayout(5,6));

f.add(b1);
f.add(b2);
f.add(b3);
f.add(b4);

f.add(b13);
f.add(b14);
f.add(b15);
f.add(b16);

b1.setVisible(false);
b2.setVisible(false);
b6.setVisible(false);

public static void main (String[] args) {
GridExample grid = new GridExample();
grid.launchFrame();
}
}

I don't think you can do it so well with GridLayout. Depends on what you want to do with your grid. I would consider drawing a grid, use an int or boolean array to track/control visibility.
