    <p>Several remarks here:</p> <p>1) <code>thisLine.trim()</code> will just remove the trailing blanks at the beginning and ending of the <code>thisLine</code> contents. It is okay to do so, specially if you are going to compare two strings, but it won't split the username and password from the variable.</p> <p>2) To split the two different values you should use <code>thisLine.split(" ")</code> (I'm assuming that your CSV file uses blanks to separate the different fields).</p> <p>3) Another mistake is to compare the strings using <code>==</code> rather than <code>equals</code>, which is the correct way of doing it.</p> <p>4) Since you are reading a new line in the <code>while</code> condition you don't need the internal <code>reader.readLine()</code></p> <p>5) Finally, never close the stream (or reader) inside the loop!! Do it on a <code>try/catch/finally</code> block.</p> <p>So, with those corrections your code will look like:</p> <pre><code> static void readFromCsvFile(String sFileName, User user) throws FileNotFoundException { String thisLine; BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(sFileName)); try { thisLine = reader.readLine(); System.out.print(thisLine); while((thisLine = reader.readLine()) != null) { thisLine = thisLine.trim(); String username = thisLine.split(" ")[0]; if (user.displayUserName().equals(username)) { System.out.print("\nUser &lt;-" + user.displayUserName() + " -&gt; exists!"); break; // break the loop } } } catch(IOException e) { System.out.print("\nUser does not exist\n"); e.printStackTrace(); } finally { try { reader.close(); } catch (IOException e) { /* ignore */ } } } </code></pre>

    1. COCheers. Tried it but same problem! It terminates at the first line in the CSV file and won't move on. The first line will never be the correct one as it's just the headers.

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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
