Old Java Program in NetBeans
Hi,
I'm new to Java. I've got a free source code "Library Information System", attached, from the net written in 2006. Can anybody tell me step by step how I can run this source code using NetBeans 6.9.1, and how I can see the Forms? I tried many times and in different ways, read about this, but I couldn't.
Many thanks
Silvia
Re: Old Java Program in NetBeans
You can't "see" the "forms" in the NetBeans IDE GUI generator since this code does not have the necessary support files for that. All you can do is create a package, put the code in that package, edit the code files to work with the package and go from there.

Hi Fubarable,
Thank you very much for your help. I did as you told me, hopefully I did it correctly, but still there is a problem. Exclamation marks appear in many places including the main file 'Firstpage.Java', please see attached file.
Cheers
Silvia
Re: Old Java Program in NetBeans
In NetBeans exclamation marks notify so many things. Compile your project, you can find the list of error you have. Or else simple double-click on the source with which has exclamation marks on it.
