Hi!
You could define a method, let's say popUp():

 Help with Code Tags 
 Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
private void popUp()
{
    JFrame frame = new JFrame("aName");
    frame.setSize(500, 500);
    frame.setVisible(true);
}
private void popUp()
{
    JFrame frame = new JFrame("aName");
    frame.setSize(500, 500);
    frame.setVisible(true);
}

Now, you should have an actionPerformed method:

public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event)
{
	if (event.getSource() == button1)	
                {
                        popUp();
                 }
}
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event)
{
	if (event.getSource() == button1)	
                {
                        popUp();
                 }
}

Assuming, you have defined the following line:

button1.addActionListener(this);
button1.addActionListener(this);

Oh, and one more thing, your class has to implement the ActionListener interface.
