I have tried to rezize my output window by changing the values in the width and legth - nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?

private final static int FRAME_GRID_ROWS = 3; private final static int FRAME_GRID_COLS = 1; private final static int FIELD_PANEL_ROWS = 10; private final static int FIELD_PANEL_COLS = 5; private final static int MAIN_PANEL_ROWS = 1; private final static int MAIN_PANEL_COLS = 4; private final static String EMPTY_ARRAY_MESSAGE = "Hit ADD to add a new Book"; private final static int FRAME_WIDTH = 350; private final static int FRAME_LENGTH = 300; private final static int FRAME_XLOC = 250; private final static int FRAME_YLOC = 100;

I also tried making changes in this part of the code to no avail. No matter what I change the numbers to, my window opens up the same size. Is there some code somewhere that controls this that I am not seeing?

//Set some of the frame properties setSize( 350, 570 ); setLocation( FRAME_XLOC , FRAME_YLOC ); pack(); setResizable(true); setDefaultCloseOperation( JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE ); setVisible( true );

Here is the rest of the code for this file, there are 2 more files with this program, but I don't think they have any code that would affect the size of the output window.
