[chisom dike Onwuegbuzie]

no finder method works for me either the textfiled label etc none just works i have tried everything i know it isnt working at all,what do i do next because i cant work with the designs i made using GUI Builderon netbeans. its quite frustrating

Are you passing the argument to the finder method?
Are you using the debugger?
Pass the form argument from beginXXX to the findYYY method.

let say i added a button to my Form which on click it will link to a php page get the neccessary information from mysql db, then load them in them in the label which i renamed display, when i type 'finddisplay' in the action event of the button the find method doesnt come up,rather i will only see an error, the only display i have seen was when i tried something like this. UIBuilder u = new UIBuilder(); 

  u.findByName(FORM_STATE_KEY_NAME, c); this is the only time i have encountered a finder which still gives me challenges please put me through on what to do. you people are dooing a great job here. thanks

Thank you shai i passed the form argument and the finder is working. Please one more thing, how can i apply code to another component in another form while im in the actionEvent of my current Form.

The typical way is to  use the before show method of the target form. If you have a form called TargetForm, the designer will generate the following method in StateMachine when you enable Before Show event

 @Override

    protected void beforeTargetForm(Form f) {

  //put your logic here

    }

Now, in the current form, just call on your actionEvent

showForm("TargetForm", null); 

and  the code will be executed before the target form is shown.

Regards.
