    <p>If I've understood you correctly, this will search for the initialism you specify in the sentence you specify then locate the phrase that matches that initialism and return them. Note that this will fail if there are multiple possibilities and an incorrect one appears before the correct one. I just can't think of a way to avoid that (although you could reduce it by working out which is closer to where the acronym appears).</p> <pre><code>public static String makeInitialism(String[] words) { StringBuilder initialism = new StringBuilder(); for(String word : words) { initialism.append(word.toUpperCase().charAt(0)); } return initialism.toString(); } public static String buildPhrase(String[] words) { StringBuilder phrase = new StringBuilder(); for(int i = 0; i &lt; words.length; i++) { phrase.append(words[i].toUpperCase().charAt(0)); if(words[i].length() &gt; 1) { phrase.append(words[i].substring(1)); } if((i + 1) &lt; words.length) { phrase.append(" "); } } return phrase.toString(); } public static String getDefinition(String word, String sentence) throws DefinitionNotFoundException { //StackOverflow removes double spaces, you can replace " "+" " with a double space in your code. sentence = sentence.replace(" "+" ", " "); String[] words = sentence.split(" "); int wordsToJoin = word.length(); word = word.toUpperCase(); for(int i = 0; i &lt; words.length - (wordsToJoin - 1); i++) { String[] tryingWords = Arrays.copyOfRange(words, i, i + wordsToJoin); if(word.equals(makeInitialism(tryingWords))) { return word + ": " + buildPhrase(tryingWords); } } throw new DefinitionNotFoundException(); } </code></pre> <p>Running:</p> <pre><code>System.out.println(getDefinition("LVPD", "I have a good friend at the Las Vegas police department")); </code></pre> <p>Produces Output:</p> <pre><code>LVPD: Las Vegas Police Department </code></pre>

    1. COOk this works but I need to return the definition from the sentence in it's original form not the lower case form.

    2. COThe definition returned is always exactly as it appears in the text. If it's showing lower case, then that's because you used a sentence where the definition is in lower case. My example was mixed case to indicate this.

    3. COIf you're wanting to change the case of the definition you could always replace `phrase.append(words[i]);` with `phrase.append(words[i].toUpperCase().charAt(0)); if(words[i].length() > 1) phrase.append(words[i].substring(1));`

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
