    Huh? Could you expand on your issue a little bit more please? – Craig Dec 30 '13 at 03:27
  • I would like to put different classes in JTabbedPane. is that possible? – user3139706 Dec 30 '13 at 03:29
  • [addTab String, Component](http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/javax/swing/JTabbedPane.html) allows you to add any class that extends [component](http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/awt/Component.html) – Craig Dec 30 '13 at 03:30
  • Do you mean different classes extending `Component`? You can't add a class itself, but you can an add instance of a class extending `Component`. – FThompson Dec 30 '13 at 03:31

Start by taking a read through How to Use Tabbed Panes

You can only instance of classes that extend from Component, so assuming your three classes extend from Component, you shouldn't have any issues
