Hi All, I am having problem getting values from jinternalframe, what i am doing is i got a JFrame that opens multiple JInternalFrame with JTextfield in it, now i want to get all the JTextfield value in the JInternalFrame, i need the function to be in the JFrame, is this possible, if not any recommendation is appreciated. Thanks. Stephen Michael

In this code I show you the way to get the value for one all you need to do next is a simple loop to get the other values. This can be done by keeping a counter for the number of internal frames you have (make sure the JTextFields have consistent naming) then use a for loop to concatenate the values and display them in the label.

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

public class InternalFrameExample extends JFrame
{
JLabel l;
JInternalFrame g;
JTextField t;
JButton b;
// the counter of frames
public InternalFrameExample()
{
g = new JInternalFrame();
t = new JTextField();
g.add(t, BorderLayout.NORTH);
g.setVisible(true);
g.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
l = new JLabel();
b = new JButton("poke");

	b.addActionListener(new ActionListener() 
	{
		public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) 
		{
			//the for loop and concat goes here
			l.setText(t.getText());
		}
	});

	add(l, BorderLayout.NORTH);
	add(b, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
	add(g, BorderLayout.CENTER);
	
	setTitle("InternalFrameExample");
	setVisible(true);
	setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT\_ON\_CLOSE);
	setSize(400, 400);
}

public static void main(String\[\] args) 
{
	new InternalFrameExample();
}

}

Hope this helps
