        }


    } catch (SQLException ex) {
        Logger.getLogger(ListFrame.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
    }
}

Answer 1

jList1ValueChanged is called twice, when selection changes. Once with evt.getValueIsAdjusting() true and once with false.

Why do you open the frame when the selection changes and not add a button to open the frame, or react to double-click on the list?

EDIT: If you really want to react to the click, just use the mouseClicked event. Changing selection by keyboard will be ignored then.
