I usually program in c++, and I'm not so good in making windows in Java...

How do I set a JTextField size?
I'm talking about the size in the window, not the number of characters.

you should be able to use the inherited methods

setMaximumSize()

setMinimumSize()

setPreferredSize()

although their effectiveness may be dependent on the layout manager you are using and the size of other components on your layout.
