Example now I have a main frame contains jtable display all the customer information, and there was a create button to open up a new JFrame that allow user to create new customer. I don't want the user can open more than one create frame. Any swing component or API can do that? or how can disabled the main frame? Something like JDialog.

I think you should use this code for the main jframe when you trying to open new one :

this.setEnabled(false);
