Hello Ali:

Arrays can contain objects. Try this:

Jbutton[] buttons = new JButton[numButtons];

where numButtons is the number of buttons you need.

Then:
int i;
for(i=0; i<numButtons; i++){
buttons[i] = new JButton();
buttons[i].setText(""+i);
//Set other props as necessary...
getContentPane().add(buttons[i]);
}

Then you can set the properties of each button just like any other button.

Any component will do - it doesn't need to be a JButton.

Hope this helps.
