    1. Please don't shout(Don't type all the words in capital letter).
    2. Please format your code probably, so it is more readable.Wrap your code using [CODE] Tag.
    WHENEVER I INPUT AN INVALID CHARACTER IN THE FIRST TEXT FIELD, THE WHOLE PROGRAM JUST FREEZES
    Your system did not freeze, it just keep looping (in do-while loop) since x is always 1. What you want to do with the do-while loop?
    Why you need to have 3 do-while loop?

    if I input an invalid character on the first text field it should display "Invalid" on the botton after "Area of a circle" but it works fine if I place an invalid character on the 2nd 3rd and 4th text field but my 1st textfield has to have the correct input

    The reason is because of the x. If you input invalid character on the first text field, the x is always 1. So it will keep on looping. But when you key in an invalid input in 2nd,3rd and 4th text field, but not 1st text field, the x is already change to 2, so it will not execute the do-while loop, and thus invalid text can be displayed.
