Still working on my hangman program from yesterday (Thanks Shoeninja for help!)

I re-did a bunch of it to include global variables and such

here is the method I am still having problems with:
BuildWord is a global string variable with the value " " (8 spaces). the loop compares your 1-char guess with all 8 characters of a randomly chosen 8-letter word. What buildword does is keep track of the word you've guessed so far. So say the word is aardvark, and you guess "a" I want buildword set to "aa a ", using cnt from the for loop to replace the appropriate spaces.

"String tempword = BuildWord.charAt(cnt)" is where I am getting the cannot convert from char to string error.

Code:

public static void compare ()
{//BEGIN COMPARISON
BuildWord="        ";


for (int cnt=0;cnt <=7; cnt++)
{//begin for
	String templetter = guessedletter;
	String tempword = BuildWord.charAt(cnt)
	
	//compares your one character guess to every character of the wordchosen
        if (guessedletter.charAt(0) == wordchosen.charAt(cnt))
    {
        	
         tempword = templetter;
    }
        
        else
    wrongt++;
}//end for

thanks,
