this is for hangman

why doesnt this add wrong letters to wrong letter field eventhough it should?
i attached a pic of the GUI

private void guessButtonActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {                                            
guess = letterEnter.getText();
boolean letterCorrect = false;
if (guess.length()>1) //checks to see if the guess is only 1 char long
{
letterEnter.setText("");
}
else
{
for (int i = 0; i<=correctWord.length()-1; i++)  // compares guessletter with every letter in correct word
{
    String tester = correctWord.substring(i,i+1);
    //System.out.println(guess+"hi");
    if (guess.equals(tester))
    {
        letterCorrect = true;
        correctSpot1.setText(guess);
        break;
    }
    else 
if (letterCorrect = false)
{
        System.out.println("aa");
 wrongLetterField.setText(wrongLetterField.getText()+letterEnter.getText());
}
}
}
    }                                           

    private void setCorrectWordActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {                                               
correctWord = wordEnter.getText();
}

Don't know if it will fix the problem your seeing, but you have an error in the following:

if (letterCorrect [B][COLOR="Red"]=[/COLOR][/B] false)

You're doing an assignment... not a comparation. It should be as follows:

if (letterCorrect [B][COLOR="Blue"]==[/COLOR][/B] false)

Or better yet,

if (!letterCorrect)
