read the API for JButton

This is perhaps more complicated than you might think. So posting it in the correct forum (Swing) instead of a completely irrelevant forum (this one) would be a good way to start.

I was thinking that the OP would see the API and find the setSize() call. :-) Didn't seem all that complicated to me.

The complicated part is choosing the size in the first place. Sure, you can just arbitrarily choose a size, but it would be preferable to have some kind of layout manager that made the buttons all the same size in a nice way, even if the user resized the application.

i wasn't going to assume that the OP wants the buttons to resize when the window resizes. actually, i don't know of any apps that do that. why would anyone want to do that?!

Mine do. When you shrink the window small enough then the buttons shrink too. It's not that I wanted to do that, it's that the layout manager naturally does that.
