java.lang.NullPointerException
at AppletMetodos.actionPerformed(AppletMetodos.java:96)

One of the values on line 96 is null (ie not initialised). Print all the variables used on that line to see which one is null, then you can back-track to find out why. The array "user" would be the prime suspect...

commented: thanks for the help +0

thanks just solved it

user[counter] = new account(accountNumber, name, balance);
