part of your question are explained in the Oracle tutorial How to Use Internal Frames
rest is described in the Rules of Using Internal Frames
read How to Use Buttons and How to Write an Action Listener
in the case that you'll a real question, the post an SSCCE demonstraded your issue(s) with JButton, ActionListener and JInternalFrames
I'd be reuse JInternalFrames and change only their visibily on the screen
