i want to allow the user of my program to type in a certain string into a textfield and click search. after this if the string is found it should be shown in a textfield. how can I do this? thanks.
Set up your gui. You can use an ActionListener added to the entry textField and/or a JButton to start processing the search. In the actionPerformed method read the string in from the entry textField and send it to a search method in which you traverse through the ArrayList and compare the search string with each item in the list. If you find a match set the text in the second textField.
