    private void initComponents() {

        jLabel1 = new javax.swing.JLabel();
        jButton1 = new javax.swing.JButton();
        jButton2 = new javax.swing.JButton();
        jLabel2 = new javax.swing.JLabel();

        setDefaultCloseOperation(javax.swing.WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

        jLabel1.setText("WELCOME TO");

        jButton1.setText("START");
        jButton1.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
                jButton1ActionPerformed(evt);
            }
        });

        jButton2.setText("LOGIN");
        jButton2.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {

What happens in your program? Do you get some error? or by pressing the button nothing happens.

the error seems to point to the fact that it cannot find the User class, is it in the same folder? Which compiler are you using?

You'll need an explicit import statement for the User class unless
it's in the same package as Welcome. Probably you don't have both classes saved in the same folder, make sure that they both exist in the same folder.

all the classes is in the same folder..i use netbeans compiler.

[mKorbel]

your code snipped doesn't shows java import, and any imagine about User class, maybe that's look like as throuble with Java DeskTop Aplications (JRS 296), not exactly with constuctor, maybe will be better ask for help on Netbeans Forum

[hertze_bogdan]

can you show us the user class or the admin class
