    <p>I am having trouble trying to figure out what is suppose to be placed in what scope when handling with try and catch, I have part of my code asks a user to type a file name they want scanned, this is the try and catch statements:</p> <pre><code>try{ System.out.println("Enter the name of the file you wouldlike to scan: "); String fileName = scan.nextLine(); File file = new File(fileName); BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(fileName) } catch( IOException ioe){ System.out.println(ioe); System.exit(-1); } </code></pre> <p>When i compile it cannot find the symbol "br" in "line = br.readLine();" //part of the code that scans the file, I am not sure what to place in which scope in the try statement</p> <p>here is the another(not the whole program) part of the code, i am tested this part with system.in and works fine, not working with filereader though</p> <pre><code>String line; int lineCount = 0, wordCount = 0, charCount = 0, palCount = 0; int thisLineWords = 0, thisLineChars = 0; boolean isPal = true; do { try { line = br.readLine(); } catch( Exception e ) { break; } if( line == null ) break; if( line.compareTo(".") == 0 ) break; thisLineWords = 0; thisLineChars = line.length() + 1; // count chars isPal = true; //count words boolean inWord = false; for( int i = 0; i &lt; line.length(); i++ ) { char ch = line.charAt(i); if( Character.isWhitespace(ch) ) { if( inWord ) inWord = false; } else { if( !inWord ) { inWord = true; thisLineWords++; } } } </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.
