Buttons

When I'm inserting buttons, how can i specify where i want the button to pop up? Like say i want a button to appear at (200, 500) how would i make that happen?

Read the Swing tutorial on [url http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/layout/index.html]How to Use Layout Managers[/url]. It is strongly recommend you use a Layout Manager and let the layout manager determine where a component should be positioned.

However if you really want to position the component yourself then read the section on "Absolute Positioning".

Is there a way for me to make the buttons go somewhere by using a JLabel? If so, how would i do that?

I use the JLabel to position the JButton. I was just wondering if that was possible

do you mean in relation to where the label is?if so, where in relation - above, below, left, right.Post a sample program so we can see exactly what you're doing, and tell uswhat you want to go where.
