Above is the code to my current Project which i need to finish in a few hours. I've done much of it but there's a few tweaks i would like with some great help.
1. I need The Banks combobox not to be in the same line as the Date and months etc. I want it to be below that and a little bit wider to make it look neat.
2.Need the account name textfield to come under surname and perfectly aligned with the rest. and have its name.

3. I need to implement this calculator program into the account manager program
[spoiler=simple calculator]

package simplecalculator01;

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.border.*;

/**
 * SimpleCalculator01.java implements a simplfied calculator in a single class.
 * It demonstrates event-driven programming. The user enters numeric data as
 * a text string into each of two text fields and selects a button labelled '+'
 * to trigger data to be retrieved from the two input fields and added together.
 * The result of the calculation is presented in a third text field.
 *
 * The window consists of a JFrame upon which various components are placed. The
 * window has a BorderLayout(). An empty JPanel is placed at the top of the
 * window (BorderLayout.NORTH). This is simply to improve the appearance of the
 * layout. Another JPanel, called inputPanel, is placed in the middle of the
 * window (BorderLayout.CENTER). This panel has a GridLayout: three rows and
 * two columns. Three JLabels and associated JTextField objects are placed on
 * the panel. The first two JTextfields are for the user to enter data; the
 * third outputs the result of the addition. A third JPanel,
 * operationButtonPanel, is placed at the bottom of the window
 * (BorderLayout.SOUTH). A JButton, plus, is added to the panel.
 *
 * A class, OperationButtonListener, is created. This implements Java's Action
 * Listener class and it is used to respond to user input. An object of this
 * class is assigned to the plus button. The instructions within the listener
 * are carried out whenever the plus button is clicked.
 *
 * Within the listener the simple addition takes place and the result is output
 * in the window labeled '='. There is no attempt to trap errors in this version
 * of the program.
 *

4. Finally i want everything to come back and to be displayed after the user clicks display. Thanks in advance i'll be watching this closely as i need to finish the prject in a few hours for the deadline. Please help.

[Fubarable]

I think you'll have a better chance of getting help though if you try to implement what you need and then ask us to help you with your code. Just posting "I need..." and giving volunteers a deadline (at least in my experience) doesn't work here, and honestly, nor should it. I wish you much luck on your project.

[Fubarable]

As for these problems:

1. I need The Banks combobox not to be in the same line as the Date and months etc. I want it to be below that and a little bit wider to make it look neat.
2.Need the account name textfield to come under surname and perfectly aligned with the rest. and have its name.

Please have a look at the layout manager tutorial as it will help guide you to the layouts that are available to you:

Lesson: Laying Out Components Within a Container (The Java™ Tutorials > Creating a GUI With JFC/Swing)

You also might consider downloading and using the MigLayout which some say is just as powerful and easier to use than the GridBagLayout.

Again much luck!

Umm Okay sorry to sound so demanding. My code i've already written it. Its just when i run the prog things aren't where i want them to be. If you run the code. You'll realize that the account name text field is way off and it doesn't even have its label on the UI. How can i rectify this? And make it come under surname ?
The second query is also a similar issue.. how do i make the Combobox for bank to be under the other combo boxes instead of alongside them?

[Fubarable]

On going through your code I see you're trying to add a JLabel called "label" twice, and this won't work. Only the second add will show:

        JLabel label = new JLabel("First Name", JLabel.RIGHT); // create label object 1
        add(label);  // adding label object 1 -- this is OK
        add(firstNameField);  //R1/C2
        label = new JLabel("Surname", JLabel.RIGHT);  // create label object 2
        add(label);  // adding label object 2  -- this would be OK if not for below
        add(surnameField);  //R2/C2
        add (label); // adding label object 2 *** again *** -- this is not OK

I rectified that but i still have a problem with the fields not being aligned.

I rectified that but i still have a problem with the fields not being aligned.

You need to play with and use different layout managers. Which ones? It depends on your needs. I'll give you this demo of a GridBagLayout, one of my least favorites, but one that can work if you put enough into using it:

import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.GridBagConstraints;

   }

      java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {

      });

   private class UserInputPanel extends JPanel {
      public UserInputPanel() {
         int eb = 15;
         setBorder(BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder(eb, eb, eb, eb));
         setLayout(new GridBagLayout());
         GridBagConstraints gbc = createGBC(0, 0, 1, 1, 0.0, 1.0, GridBagConstraints.WEST, GridBagConstraints.BOTH);

         gbc = createGBC(1, 0, 1, 1, 1.0, 1.0, GridBagConstraints.EAST, GridBagConstraints.HORIZONTAL);
         add(firstNameField, gbc);
