What have you tried? Keep in mind that you can nest layouts. Go through the layout tutorials and look for sections of your program that look like a particular layout, add them to a JPanel with that layout, then treat them as a single component and repeat the process.

you can use setBounds method to manually put components on the container.....

From Oracle's Tutorial at the start of the Doing Without a Layout Manager (Absolute Positioning) which describes the setBounds() approach:

"Although it is possible to do without a layout manager, you should use a layout manager if at all possible. A layout manager makes it easier to adjust to look-and-feel-dependent component appearances, to different font sizes, to a container's changing size, and to different locales. Layout managers also can be reused easily by other containers, as well as other programs."

As pbrockway2 already pointed out, this is pretty terrible advice. What happens when you resize your Container? What happens if you want to add or remove a single Component? What happens if you want to change the layout (from vertical to horizontal, for example)?
