The addition program is providing incorrect sum '0'

You need to figure the total in the action performed method. Currently, you are summing the values present in the textfields before the GUI is ever shown, which are then blank, which then produces a 0 sum.

Can you help me rewriting the entire program properly, so that it works fine?

[masijade]

Noone said you needed to completely rewrite it.

Simply move the try/catch block into the actionPerformed method, directly before the first call to setText.

Great! It worked. Thank you for your help.
