How to make a start/menu screen?

hey, thanks for taking the time to read this, i do apologize if this question is hard/too easy, but i am sort of new to java.

I'm making a cook book type of program and i would like to make a starting screen, with a button on there which takes you to another JFrame with the recipe on there. I know how to make the recipe page, but how do i make the button remove the starting window and bring up the recipe window?

thank you

I am not sure if you obtained a solution to this yet, but implementing an action listener for the button so that when an action is performed you have some code that will make the recipe frame visible and the initial frame invisible. Good luck.
