windows

what's the best way to switch between multiple windows? i.e. window 1: button A pressed, go to window A.... etc?

can i use multiple panels (as each represents a window), and use frame (the container) .add and .removeAll methods. in other words, maintain one frame and switch the panels accordingly?

is there some online tutorial on this? what is the difference between window, frame, dialog, and how are they used together?

I think the Swing trail of Sun's Java tutorial explains this.
java.sun.com

In case you have trouble finding it.
