Long text scroll in JFrame

I am building this program and I would like to have a square area that is scrollable since the text is long. I've tried some methods but it seems to cut out the text out of the length. Could anyone give me a tip on how to do this?

How do you add a JPanel from another class to a panel with CardLayout?

I'm working on a group project and I'm the one making the GUI figuring it'd be good to practice with it. The program is supposed to be a pizza ordering system (pretty standard stuff) and what I'm trying to accomplish is that I have a main class that creates an application window. Inside this window is a panel that uses CardLayout with a button that when pressed calls another JPanel from another class dedicated specifically to that panel and places it as a card in the layout to be swapped back and forth from as normal.
What I have so far are the different panels I wish to call and the main class which has the window and main card panel. I can have it swap easily between panels created within the main class but when I try to use the panels from the other classes it just swaps to a blank panel when it should show the other class's panel.
The main class

I can't tell where I've gone wrong and I've spent roughly the last three hours trying to fix this and searching the internet for answers to no avail so thank you in advance if you can help me out.
Also I apologize in advance, I know I end up misusing the proper terminology for programming alot, I understand what things are just forget what to properly call them sometimes.

So, basically, I took out all the null layouts and "manual" layout code, as it's just going to mess with you to no end AND added add(panel1); to the end of the MainMenu constructor - as, I've said, NOTHING was added to MainMenu, so, nothing was going to get displayed.
Before you tell me that "this isn't the layout I want", understand that I understand that, but my point is, null layouts are a really bad idea, as almost the entire Swing API relies the layout managers in one way or another.
I appreciate that layout management can seem like a complex subject, but it solves some very complex problems and it's worth taking the time to learn them. Remember, you're not stuck to a single layout manager, you can use component components to adjust individual containers to their individual needs.
You can take a look at:
Layout using Java Swing
Which Layout Manager to use?

*Which java swing layout should I use

How to open a new JPanel with a JButton?

I am trying to code a program with multiple screens, however, I do not want to use tabbed panes. I have looked at using multiple JPanels with the card layout and the methods are simply not working. What I need to be able to do is load the new JPanel when a button is clicked. Here is my code:
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.EventQueue;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.border.EmptyBorder;
import java.awt.CardLayout;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
public class IA extends JFrame {
private JPanel contentPane;
private JPanel home;
private JPanel clients;
/**
* Launch the application.
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
try {
IA frame = new IA();
frame.setVisible(true);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
}
/**
* Create the frame.
*/
public IA() {
setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
setBounds(100, 100, 450, 300);
contentPane = new JPanel();
contentPane.setBorder(new EmptyBorder(5, 5, 5, 5));
setContentPane(contentPane);
contentPane.setLayout(new CardLayout(0, 0));
JPanel home = new JPanel();
contentPane.add(home, "name_714429679706141");
home.setLayout(null);
JButton btnClients = new JButton("Clients");
btnClients.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
home.setVisible(false);
clients.setVisible(true);
}
});
btnClients.setBounds(160, 108, 89, 23);
home.add(btnClients);
JPanel clients = new JPanel();
contentPane.add(clients, "name_714431450350356");
clients.setLayout(null);
JButton btnHome = new JButton("Home");
btnHome.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
clients.setVisible(false);
home.setVisible(true);
}
});
btnHome.setBounds(169, 107, 89, 23);
clients.add(btnHome);
}
}

The problem is that you have duplicate variables home and clients .
The folllowing is your modified code to fix that, with comments on the changed lines (five lines total) :
import java.awt.CardLayout;
import java.awt.EventQueue;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JFrame;

import javax.swing.border.EmptyBorder;
public class IA extends JFrame {
private final JPanel contentPane;
// private final JPanel home; // REMOVED
// private JPanel clients; // REMOVED
/**
* Launch the application.
*/
public static void main(final String[] args) {
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
try {
IA frame = new IA();
frame.setVisible(true);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
}
/**
* Create the frame.
*/
public IA() {
setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
setBounds(100, 100, 450, 300);
contentPane = new JPanel();
contentPane.setBorder(new EmptyBorder(5, 5, 5, 5));
setContentPane(contentPane);
contentPane.setLayout(new CardLayout(0, 0));
final JPanel home = new JPanel();
contentPane.add(home, "name_714429679706141");
home.setLayout(null);
final JPanel clients = new JPanel(); // MOVED UP
contentPane.add(clients, "name_714431450350356"); // MOVED UP
clients.setLayout(null); // MOVED UP
JButton btnClients = new JButton("Clients");
btnClients.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(final ActionEvent e) {
home.setVisible(false);
clients.setVisible(true);
}
});
btnClients.setBounds(160, 108, 89, 23);
home.add(btnClients);
JButton btnHome = new JButton("Home");
btnHome.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(final ActionEvent e) {
clients.setVisible(false);
home.setVisible(true);
}
});
btnHome.setBounds(169, 107, 89, 23);
clients.add(btnHome);
}
}

I would take a look at this post, however I have a feeling you'll need to use a actionlistener to get this done...
Java Swing. Opening a new JPanel from a JButton and making the buttons pretty
I would of left this as a comment but apparently you need 50 rep for that...
This link might be more helpful.. How to open a new window by clicking a button

When the following code is invoked the clients variable equals to null.
JButton btnClients = new JButton("Clients");
btnClients.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
home.setVisible(false);
clients.setVisible(true);
}
});
Write this:
JPanel clients = new JPanel();
contentPane.add(clients, "name_714431450350356");
clients.setLayout(null);
JButton btnHome = new JButton("Home");
btnHome.setBounds(169, 107, 89, 23);
clients.add(btnHome);
before you add the Action Listener

dNcButton.setBounds(212, 70, 89, 23);

}
}
When I run the above program, the table frame is also not displayed. But when I remove frame.add(new JScrollPane(table));, it is displaying the table in the JTable area, but there is no scrollbar in it.
Please let me know how can I get a scrollbar in the table and display the data correctly.
Thanks

At first don't use null layout, please read here.
frame.add(new JScrollPane(table)); this scroll pane is not displaying because in null layout each component needs to have bounds. Try below code. I just changed static variables to instance variables. And added scrollpane in to the constructor.

Don't use a null layout.
By default your buttons have a default size of (0, 0) so there is nothing to paint.
User a layout manager, probably a GridLayout, and the layout manager will determine the size and location of each button for you.
Read the section from the Swing tutorial o Using Layout Managers for more information and working examples.
