  1. this code has an error.

    protected void loadCategory() throws SQLException
    {

    JDialog JDAdd = new Category();

    JDAdd.show();

    } //load Category

    in class Setting there is this piece of code, but category doesnt have a default constructor at all. also category in not an object of JDialog and the cast cant be done. please check it out. thanks so much. god bless u 😀
