[SOLVED] How to close the current form when i open a new form?

[tpyq]

Hi,

I created 2 form, login and register, and i have got buttons on 2 of the form. On the login form, there is a button with ButtonMouseClicked(evt) that will open the register form.
The code i use to open the register form is new Register().setVisible(true);. Then i added new Login().setVisible(false); to try to close the login form but it cant work.

Can anyone help me with this?

Repaint? We have to call some form of repaint, which is currently somewhat convoluted, but often without a call to repaiint it take great time visible item show on screen.

Or else you can dispose the login form and set the visible to true on the second form.

Thanks for the reply,

I dun get you with the repaint part.

I tried

Login().dispose();
new Register().setVisible(true);

but there is a error which says cannot find symbol for method Login and dispose.

Did you read about dispose() on Java doc? You are using it in wrong way.
