    I'm currently working on a team project in collage with 3 other people and we are stumped on a problem at the moment.

    Basically we are building a database for alarm companys customers. We are required to include GUI's, file access linked list etc. We have each section working on its own. Basically the problem is we are inserting data into a GUI but we are unable to send the data to the linked list for storage.

    If anyway has any idea's or has suggestions I will post up the code we are using (don't have to hand now). If you could give me some advice as this problem is driving the 3 of us nuts.

    *cough* college *cough*
    Anyway, Im not sure what you want. Are you trying just to save the data from your GUI form to the database?

    He has stated that its for college already and he also states that they are unable to get the GUI to work correctly with the back end. I find it highly frustateing that when I post for help that I get people posting assumeing I want them to write my projects for me.

    As for the actual problem. Are you able to get anything stored at all or is it just the data into the linked lists? Are you using anything like MVC?

    damnyanks, I think you misinterpreted kbannon's remark. It was a spelling correction

    Eh DamnYanks... How do you spell college?

    my reference to college was to correct his typos not to berate him for asking for help!
    The 2nd part of my reply was asking for additional info so I could try and help them!

    I'm going to assume you're entering the data into Textfield's and saving it into a linked list using the following method:

    linkedList.add( textField.getText() )

    If not, try it out. If so, post up some more details. Code isn't as necessary as the actual GUI model. If there's data in several Textfields you wish to save, you could always use the following:

    JTextField [] fields = new JTextFieldI]size[/I

    for(int n = 0; n < fields.length; n++) {
    linkedList.add( fields[n].getText() );
    }


    The actual GUI model would be very helpful as I'm probably pissing into the wind here.
