    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import java.sql.*;
     
    public class INS extends Frame implements ActionListener{
    	Frame f;
    	Label l1, l2;
    	TextField t1, t2;
    	Button b1, b2, b3, b4, b5;
    	Connection c;
    	Statement s;
    	ResultSet r;
    	INS (){
     
    		try{
    			f=new Frame();
    			f.setLayout(null);
    			f.setVisible(true);
    			f.setSize(800, 600);
    			l1=new Label("ID");
    			l1.setBounds(50, 100, 100, 50);
    			f.add(l1);
    			l2=new Label("Name");
    			l2.setBounds(50, 150, 100, 50);
    			f.add(l2);
    			t1=new TextField();

    	public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae){
    		try{
    			if(ae.getSource()==b1){
    				String s1="INSERT INTO USER(id, name) VALUES("+t1.getText()+",'"+t2.getText() + "')";
    				System.out.println(s1);
    				s.executeUpdate(s1);
    				r=s.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM USER");
    				t1.setText("");

    Please edit your post and wrap your code with code tags:
    [code=java]
    YOUR CODE HERE
    [/code]
    to get highlighting and preserve formatting.

    One problem I see is the empty catch block. You need to add a call to the printStackTrace() method so that there is a print out when an exception is thrown.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    java.lang.NullPointerException
    at INS.actionPerformed(INS.java:68)
    The statement on line 68 was executed with a null value.
    Look at line 68 and find the variable with the null value. Then backtrack in the code to see why that variable has a null value.

    java.lang.NullPointerException
    at INS.actionPerformed(INS.java:71)
    Now the null value is on line 71

    The code tags for your post need fixing.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    Fixed. (Still learning)

    what do I do with a null value?
    I need whatever values I insert to save to the database. The only null I see is the setLayout.

    what do I do with a null value?
    Test if a variable has a null value instead of a good value and change execution flow to react to it so that it does not cause an exception.

    NOTE: There are still catch blocks without the call to printStackTrace().
    All the catch blocks should have that.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
