"I want to replace the current panel and call another panel in JPanel forms"

Instead of trying to add an remove panels, use a CardLayout . Seeing how you're using Netbeans GUI Builder, see How to Use CardLayout with Netbeans GUI Builder . What the CardLayout does is allow you to change between different views without having to add and drop panels, which can be troublesome.

Also you may want to debug your if statement. Hard to tell with only the little but of code you're showing.
