    <p>Basically I wan't to obtain a string from the user, I have created a class called "frames" in which I have a load of methods such as exitChoice(), infoPop(), ect... I wish to create one called getText(), and this is what I have so far:</p> <pre><code> public String getText() { JDialog textBox = new JDialog(frame, "Save Name", true); JTextField inputField = new JTextField(18); inputField.setText(save == null ? "new save" : save.saveName); textBox.setBounds(width, height, 275, 70); textBox.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE); textBox.setLayout(new FlowLayout()); textBox.setAlwaysOnTop(true); textBox.setResizable(false); textBox.add(inputField); textBox.setVisible(true); return inputField.getText(); } </code></pre> <p>now I know this won't work, It simply gets the game stuck and I have to terminate it externally, I also understand why it doesn't work, that isn't the problem, I also know how to add a JButton, an action listener and work it from there,</p> <p>Basically I am trying to create a clean simple method which obtains a String from the user which is ALL contained within the method.</p> <p>Ideally I would like to write a line which reads along the lines of</p> <p>//EDIT: I know the method getText() does exist, sorry if it is misleading, I will ammend it</p> <pre><code>//String saveName = new JTextField.getText(); String saveName = new JTextInputGetterBoxThing(); </code></pre> <p>but as far as I have found so far this doesn't appear to exist, does anybody have any ideas? or ideally know of a one liner that I have missed?</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.
