Answer 1

Basically, you can't. Or, rather, it's difficult. Running an applet requires the construction of an AppletContext and management of the applet life cycle.

A better approach would be to move all of the code you have in your applet to a JPanel. Then have a simple applet that just creates the panel.

Then, when you want to open another panel, you create a JFrame and populate it with the appropriate panel.
