I have a small GUI contains JPanel in which have got JTextArea and JLabel, when I make

panel1.setLayout(null);

panel1.setLayout((LayoutManager) new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT));

I can get both Jlabel and JTextArea visible but couldn't able to get the position, How to get the required position set, am newbie! help please! thanks

Code:

private void createPageScreen1() {
    panel1 = new JPanel();
    panel1.setLayout((LayoutManager) new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT));
    //panel1.setLayout(null);
    //panel1.setLayout(new BorderLayout());


    JLabel lblProcessingData = new JLabel();
    //lblProcessingData.setBounds(5, 5, 15, 10);
    lblProcessingData.setLocation(5, 5);
    lblProcessingData.setText("label for Title");
    panel1.add(lblProcessingData);

    String fileName = "loadFiles\\testFile.txt";

    try {
        textArea = new JTextArea(40, 37);
        //textArea.setBounds(5, 20, 40, 37);
        textArea.setBorder (new TitledBorder (new EtchedBorder(), fileName));
        textArea.setLineWrap(true);
        textArea.setEditable(false);
        textArea.setVisible(true);

        FileReader reader = new FileReader(fileName);
        BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(reader);
        textArea.read(br, null);
        br.close();
        textArea.requestFocus();

        JScrollPane scroll1 = new JScrollPane(textArea);
        scroll1.setVerticalScrollBarPolicy (ScrollPaneConstants.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_ALWAYS);
        panel1.add(scroll1);
    } catch (Exception e) {

        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    panel1.setVisible(true);
