Need Swing exmples

[stocksami]

I'm learning Java while doing a project at work. I'm creating an
application that while go to a user chosen directory, read some files,
populate some list boxes with that information and then finally display
a user chosen set of data. I've written some classes that read the
data and put it into objects. I've also been able to master using
FileChooser to select a directory. The step I'm having trouble with is
putting the data from the files into listboxes for further choices.
Could someone point me to a link with examples similar to that?

Thanks,

Clark

I should add that I'm using JFileChooser, not FileChooser. I can't
figure out how to update the components in the JFrame.

You could try "Learn Swing By Examples":
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/learn/index.html

You might also want to try "A Visual Index to the Swing Components".
Click on the picture of the component you want to use, and you'll be sent to
a tutorial on using that component.
