    <p>I cannot seem to change JButton ActionCommand inside an ActionListener. I am trying to use the same two buttons multiple time by changing the ActionCommand, but that doesn't seem to work. Here's my code, hopefully you can help:</p> <pre><code>void ChangeAction() { storyButn1.setActionCommand("but3"); storyButn2.setActionCommand("but4"); } public Main() { story.setText("&lt;html&gt;You wake up with a sore head in a dark forest. You can't remember anything, except from the word H.E.L.P. You see a light in the distance, What to do? &lt;/html&gt;"); storyButn1.addActionListener(this); storyButn1.setActionCommand("but1"); storyButn2.addActionListener(this); storyButn2.setActionCommand("but2"); Box Layout = new Box(BoxLayout.Y_AXIS); Layout.add(story); Layout.setSize(story.getWidth() + 10, story.getHeight()); frame.setVisible(true); frame.setSize(400, 200); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE); frame.add(Layout, BorderLayout.CENTER); frame.add(storyButn1); frame.add(storyButn2); frame.setTitle("Text Adventure"); frame.setLayout(new GridLayout(3, 2, 5, 5)); frame.getContentPane().setBackground(Color.lightGray); } public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { if (e.getActionCommand().equals("but1")) { random = (int) (Math.round(Math.random()) * 10); if (random == 10) { story.setText("&lt;html&gt;You run towards the light source. It's dark and you don't see that root in the ground. You break your ankle!&lt;/html&gt;"); storyButn1 .setText("&lt;html&gt;Lay against a tree and hope for the best?&lt;/html&gt;"); storyButn2.setText("&lt;html&gt;Call out for help?&lt;/html&gt;"); } else { story.setText("&lt;html&gt;You walk carefully towards the light source, When you reach it, you find that it is a torch.&lt;/html&gt;"); storyButn1.setText("Pick it up?"); storyButn2.setText("Switch it off?"); } } if (e.getActionCommand().equals("but2")) { random = (int) (Math.round(Math.random()) * 20); if (random == 20) { story.setText("&lt;html&gt;You are near the top of the tree when your foot slips. You go plummeting back into the darkness, never to be seen again."); storyButn1.setText("Retry?"); storyButn2.setText("Retry?"); if (e.getActionCommand().equals("but1") || e.getActionCommand().equals("but2")) { this.dispose(); frame.setVisible(false); new Main(); } } else { story.setText("&lt;html&gt;You successfully climb to the top of the tree where you find a safe spot to sit. You stay there for a while, *BANG*, You hear something in the distance!&lt;/html&gt;"); ChangeAction(); storyButn1.setText("Climb down and investigate?"); storyButn2.setText("Follow the light source?"); if(e.getActionCommand().equals("but3")){ story.setText("&lt;html&gt;You slowly climb down the tree. When you reach the bottom, you try to follow where you think the sound had come from. As your walking you look down. There is a loaded revolver with one bullet missing and a trail of blood.&lt;/html&gt;"); } else if(e.getActionCommand().equals("but4")){ story.setText("&lt;html&gt;You walk carefully towards the light source, When you reach it, you find that it is a torch.&lt;/html&gt;"); } } } } </code></pre>

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.

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