I am trying to build a GUI for a database movie selector program. I am using netbeans(current version 8.0.2) and i have the button down and i would like a window with a text field to open when the button is pressed and then use that input within the button method to produce a result. say, i want to search the database for a movie i can input the name and press ok and it will ouput on a textArea. how can i do this? i have tried to look at the button options and see the Events>inputMethod>inputMethodTextChange, but this doesnt seem right. thanks for any help guys.
