Problem with JFrames
I made an application. In this application I have an Jframe that shows all customers in a table. When the users double clicks an customer the program opens a new JFrame with the customer details.
My problem is that the first JFrame stays accessible. How to solve????

Why using a dialog? Isn't a JFrame better? Because the user has to fill in a lots of fields.
you can put whatever components you want on a JDialog.
another thing you might want to try is:
when opening second frame call
parentFrame.disable();
when closing second frame:
parentFrame.enable();
when opening second frame call
parentFrame.disable();
when closing second frame:
parentFrame.enable();
oops, make that:
parentFrame.setEnabled(fal
and
parentFrame.setEnabled(tru
parentFrame.setEnabled(fal
and
parentFrame.setEnabled(tru

Yes, thats seems logic to me. I tried this but I see that my data on the first screen doesn't contain the updated data from the second screen.
How can I update that data?

from your initial form:
CustomerInfoDialog cid = new CustomerInfoDialog(this, "Customer Info", true);
cid.show();
public class CustomerInfoDialog extends JDialog {
public CustomerInfoDialog(Frame owner, String title, boolean modal) {
super(owner, title, modal);
// add your components
}
}
}
