there is only one version of a student.

student information is shown in the upper button (in myJPanel1).

when the user clicks on the upper button in myJPanel1, then WhatsUp() is shown in the lower button (in myJPanel2).

The difference here is that you are required to:

do everything the in second panel, myJPanel2.

No changes in myJPanel1.java

Therefore:

You have to change one line (or at most 3 lines) in myJPanel.java (the panel that creates the two other panels)

A lot of changes in myJPanel2.java

NO changes in myJPanel1.java (of course there are changes in myJPanel1 screen, where the button b1 is located)
