I'd add a call to printStackTrace to the catch block line 43 to show the full text of the error message.

Thanks for taking time and replying NormR1..

But actually the stupidest thing happed with this code..

I just changed the JDK from 1.6 to 1.7 and then tried this code and it worked with no errors...

And since, all other are working flawlessly...

I think thats because the Nimbus style is only supported by JDK 7... So running that code on a JDK 6/jre 6 will throw an error

Yes, Nimbus was new from 1.6 update 10 to be precise

but thats is the other problem...
i never selected NIMBUS !!!
m coding in windows xp as such but i displays some code as nimbus and some as XP

Read lines 178 onwards in the code you posted. That's where your program explicitly selects Nimbus.
Yet another good example of why an IDE is dangerous for less experienced users - you probably didn't know that your IDE did that behind your back.

i know it is doing that .. i tried to change it.. its not happening..
can u suggest me steps or something..

"i never selected NIMBUS !!!"
"i know it is doing that "
make your mind up.

"i tried to change it.. its not happening" - change what to what exactly? How can anyone possibly comment on some change that you don't tell us about.

"can u suggest me steps or something." Yes - think about what you are posting and give accurate, consistent and most of all complete info to those who are trying to help you.

I m sorry to confuse u sir.
looking at the code i know it is automatically selecting Nimbus..
all i want to know is ..
how can i change it....

That code was generated by your IDE, so you'll need to look in the IDE for the option to set the L&F. You could just delete that block of code, but your IDE will probably recreate it next time unless you change the option in your IDE.
