Hi,
here is the code you want:

  
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class FrameKiller extends JFrame {
  JToolBar jToolBar1 = new JToolBar();
  JButton btnFrameHandler = new JButton();
  JFrame frame = null;
  public FrameKiller() {
    try {
      jbInit();
    }
    catch(Exception e) {
      e.printStackTrace();
    }
  }
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    FrameKiller frameKiller1 = new FrameKiller();
    frameKiller1.setSize(200,200);
    frameKiller1.show();
  }
  private void jbInit() throws Exception {
    btnFrameHandler.setText("Create Frame");
    btnFrameHandler.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        btnFrameHandler_actionPerformed(e);
      }
    });
    this.addWindowListener(new java.awt.event.WindowAdapter() {
      public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
        this_windowClosing(e);
      }
    });
    this.getContentPane().add(jToolBar1, BorderLayout.NORTH);
    jToolBar1.add(btnFrameHandler, null);
  }
  void btnFrameHandler_actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
    if (frame == null){
      frame = new JFrame("Kill me");
      frame.setSize(200,200);
      frame.show();
      this.btnFrameHandler.setText("Kill Frame");
    }
    else{
      frame.dispose();
      frame = null;
      this.btnFrameHandler.setText("Create Frame");
    }
  }
  void this_windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
    System.exit(0);
  }
}

Hope this helps
