private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private JPanel contentPane;
private JTextField textField;

public static void main(String[] args) {
    EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
        public void run() {
            try {
                Cool frame = new Cool();
                frame.setVisible(true);
            } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    });
 }

 public Cool() {
    setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    contentPane = new JPanel();
    contentPane.setBorder(new EmptyBorder(5, 5, 5, 5));
    contentPane.setLayout(new BorderLayout(0, 0));
    setContentPane(contentPane);
    setTitle("JNotePad");

    textField = new JTextField();
    contentPane.add(textField, BorderLayout.NORTH);
    textField.setColumns(30);

    JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane();
    contentPane.add(scrollPane, BorderLayout.CENTER);

Answer 1

I mean for example some one wants to write one thing red or either in a different format so what would i use

You have already been given the answer. You need to use a JTextPane or JEditorPane. I find using the JTextPane is easier.

Read the section from the Swing tutorial on Text Component Features for more information and working examples.
