anyone help me ?

(1) Begin with a clear description of the contents of the input files. (How many elements are there in each line of a file? How are they separated? Are the numeric elements always distinct within a file? Are the other elements always an upper case letter? Are there any other constraints on the elements of a line?)

(2) Formulate a precise description of the desired output for any given input.

---------------------

Then, later, begin to code.

Your description answering point (1) will help you create classes instances of which might represent the data in a file. Or other, simpler, data structures if they are sufficient. For instance you might represent the text files as a list of string arrays.

Much later you can address the questions of the two tasks your program must perform:

* populating the data structures from the file

* searching within the data structures for a match with some given input.

Much, much, later you can being work on a GUI. (If that was the intention of your post's reference to the input coming from a text field.)

------------------

This is all very general. For more specific help we need a (or more specific) question. That is, describe what you are doing - not the desired end result, but the actual steps you are taking to get there - and supply the code that is giving rise to the problem.
