	login.addActionListener(new login());
 
 
	frame.add(north, BorderLayout.NORTH);
 
	frame.setVisible(true);
 
	}
}

hope someone can help me

If you want a window to "disappear" usually it's better to use a dialog such as a JDialog or the related JOptionPane. Then to make it disappear you can simply call setVisible(false) or dispose() on the dialog in the event where you want it to disappear.

Thanks alot
