I’ve been trying to sort this out for a while now, I have checked the docs (if you notice the table code is from there), and I just can’t quite figure it out. Am I using the wrong containers or do I need to dimension it? If so, how?

        JPanel toppanel = new JPanel(new GridLayout(3, 3, 2, 2));
        frame.add(toppanel, BorderLayout.NORTH);

        String[] columnNames = {"Entry", "Year", "Year", "Year", "Year"};

    Looks good added to the frame’s BorderLayout.CENTER.

    Also, don’t create new objects if there’s an existing primitive or factory method.

    Addendum: What do you mean factory method?

    Good question; Integer. valueOf() is a typical static factory method. As indicated in the API and discussed in Joshua Bloch’s Item 1: Consider static factory methods instead of constructors, the method caches frequently requested values.
