I am trying to write a GUI that has a menu, with JMenuItems, and JMenuItems inside JMenuItems. But every time I try to add JMenuItems to JMenuItems they overwrite the name of the previous JMenuItem. How can I fix this problem?

Use JMenus as JMenuItem containers. JMenu extends JMenuItem so you can use a JMenu everywhere you can use a JMenuItem.
