I am very new to swt and im my example I am using the following code for the shell and the display: final GridLayout layout = new GridLayout(2, false); parent.setLayout(layout);

I am trying to open a new ,'panel' as it is called in java, I think in swt it is a new display/dialog? when a button is pressed in the opening shell? I have looked everywhere for an example and I tried so much and cannot get it to work. Any ideas on what I would put into my Listener?

Thanks, Ann.

The equivalent to JPanel is a Composite in SWT. You should consider to read http://www.eclipse.org/swt/snippets/ for examples.
