  public String data = "";
  JFrame f;
  JLabel l1, l2, l3;
  JTextField tf1, tf2, tf3;
  JButton b;
  JavaGui() {

   FileWriter fw = null;
   try {
    fw = new FileWriter("person.txt");
   } catch (IOException ex) {
    Logger.getLogger(JavaGui.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
   }

   PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(fw);


   f = new JFrame("Java GUI");
   l1 = new JLabel("Name");
   l1.setBounds(20, 50, 80, 30);
   tf1 = new JTextField();
   tf1.setBounds(100, 50, 200, 30);

   l2 = new JLabel("Nickname");
   l2.setBounds(20, 100, 80, 30);
   tf2 = new JTextField();
   tf2.setBounds(100, 100, 200, 30);

   l3 = new JLabel("Age");
   l3.setBounds(20, 150, 80, 30);
   tf3 = new JTextField();
   tf3.setBounds(100, 150, 200, 30);

   b = new JButton("Save");
   b.setBounds(100, 200, 70, 30);

   f.add(l1);
   f.add(tf1);
   f.add(l2);
   f.add(tf2);
   f.add(l3);
   f.add(tf3);
   f.add(b);
   f.setSize(350, 350);
   f.setLayout(null);
   f.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
   f.setResizable(false);
   f.setVisible(true);
   f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

   for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
    b.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
     public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {

      String name = "";
      String nickname = "";
      String ageS = "";
      int age = 0;
      try {
       name = "Name : " + tf1.getText();
       nickname = "Nickname : " + tf2.getText();
       age = Integer.parseInt(tf3.getText());

       if (age > 0 && age < 100) {
        ageS = "Age : " + age;
       } else {
        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Please Enter Age field by Positive number Or Less than 100");
       }
      } catch (NumberFormatException ex) {
       JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Please enter Age field by number type");

      }

      data += name + " " + nickname + " " + ageS;

      pw.println(data);
      pw.close();

     }

    });
   }

  }

  public static void main(String[] args) {
   new JavaGui();
  }

 }

Answer 1

I want to add more than one person's data in

You want to write to the file using a FileWriter (not a PrintWriter).

Then when you create the FileWriter you can "append" data to the file. Read the FileWriter API for the appropriate constructor to use.

Answer 2

Tested and working fine.I have added next button so each time you append new data in StringBuilder and at the end you can save that persons.You can remove the counter(i have added counter to add only 3 persons) and make it without limit.

import javax.swing.*;

import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.logging.Level;
import java.util.logging.Logger;

public class JavaGui {
JFrame f;
JLabel l1, l2, l3;
JTextField tf1, tf2, tf3;
JButton b,next;
int counter;

StringBuilder data = new StringBuilder();
JavaGui() {}

public static void main(String[] args) {

    FileWriter fw = null;
    try{
        fw = new FileWriter("person.txt");
        PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(fw);
        new JavaGui().go(pw);

       }catch (IOException ex) {
        Logger.getLogger(JavaGui.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
    }


}

public void go(PrintWriter pw) {

    f = new JFrame("Java GUI");
    l1 = new JLabel("Name");
    l1.setBounds(20, 50, 80, 30);
    tf1 = new JTextField();
    tf1.setBounds(100, 50, 200, 30);

    l2 = new JLabel("Nickname");
    l2.setBounds(20, 100, 80, 30);
    tf2 = new JTextField();
    tf2.setBounds(100, 100, 200, 30);

    l3 = new JLabel("Age");
    l3.setBounds(20, 150, 80, 30);
    tf3 = new JTextField();
    tf3.setBounds(100, 150, 200, 30);

    next = new JButton("Next");
    next.setBounds(100, 200, 70, 30);

    b = new JButton("Save");
    b.setBounds(180, 200, 70, 30);

    f.add(l1);f.add(tf1);
    f.add(l2);f.add(tf2);
    f.add(l3);f.add(tf3);
    f.add(next);
    f.add(b);
    f.setSize(350, 350);
    f.setLayout(null);
    f.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
    f.setResizable(false);
    f.setVisible(true);
    f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

    next.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {

        @Override
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
            String name = "";
            String nickname = "";
            String ageS = "";
            int age = 0;

              try{    
                name = "Name : " + tf1.getText();
                nickname = "Nickname : " + tf2.getText();
                age =Integer.parseInt(tf3.getText());

                if(age > 0 && age < 100) {
                    ageS = "Age : " + age;
                }else{
                    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Please Enter Age field by Positive number Or Less than 100");
                }
               }catch(NumberFormatException ex){
                JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Please enter Age field by number type");
               }

               data.append(name + " " + nickname + " " + ageS);
               data.append(System.getProperty("line.separator"));

               counter++;

               tf1.setText("");
               tf2.setText("");
               tf3.setText("");

               if(counter > 2)
                   next.setEnabled(false);
        }

    });

    b.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){

            pw.print(data.toString());
            pw.close();

        } 

    });
 }

}
