    <p>I would like to compare the input from a JTextField to all the elements in a string arraylist. If the input is equal to an element in the list I would like the program to acknowledge by saying "This is in my vocabulary.", and if it is not, I would like the program to say "This is NOT in my vocabulary." In my code, I have tried getting this to work buy I always get the message "This is NOT in my vocabulary." even if the input matches an element in my list. How can I get this to work properly?</p> <p>Here is my code, in it AI is where the list that is being compared is.</p> <pre><code>package Important; import java.awt.event.ActionEvent; import java.awt.event.ActionListener; import javax.swing.JTextField; import AI.*; public class TextActions implements ActionListener{ private String hero; private Vocabulary vocab1 = new Vocabulary(); public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { e.getSource(); hero = e.getActionCommand(); if (vocab1.Adjectives.equals(hero)){ System.out.println("This word is in my vocab"); }else{ System.out.println( hero + " is not in my vocab"); } //CompareWords(hero); } public void CompareWords(String readme){ if (vocab1.Adjectives.contains(readme)){ //System.out.println("This word is in my vocab"); } } } </code></pre> <p>Here is the Vocabulary class as requested.</p> <pre><code>package AI; </code></pre> <p>import java.util.*;</p> <p>public class Vocabulary {</p> <pre><code>//String[] thoughts; public List&lt;String&gt; Adjectives = new ArrayList&lt;String&gt;(); public void AddWord(int ArrayListNumber, String WordEntered){ if(ArrayListNumber == 1){ Adjectives.add(WordEntered); } } </code></pre> <p>}</p>

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.
