    <p>Here is my code, pretty simple really. Its not homework, I'm teaching myself java through an education book:</p> <hr> <pre><code>import java.util.*; /** @author Chris */ public class Exercise9_9 extends GregorianCalendar { public static void main(String[] args) { String[] stringList = {"s", "c", "b", "f", "e", "q", "g", "w", "i", "o"}; Integer[] integerList = {5, 7, 8, 9, 6, 5, 4, 1, 2, 3}; Calendar[] calendarList = new Calendar[10]; for (int a = 0; a &lt; calendarList.length; a++) { calendarList[a] = new GregorianCalendar(); calendarList[a].set(Calendar.YEAR, ((int)Math.random()* 1000)); } System.out.println("Largest String: " + max(stringList)); System.out.println("Largest int: " + max(integerList)); **System.out.println("Largeset date: " + (max(calendarList)).toString());** } public static Object max(Object[] a) { Arrays.sort(a); return a[a.length-1]; } **@Override public String toString()** { return "Test"; } } </code></pre> <hr> <p>The question is to produce three arrays: int, String and Calendar type. Then pick out the biggest out of each category (and display the answers). </p> <p>This class extends the <code>GregorianCalendar</code> class which means I have access to the Calendars <code>toString()</code> which I'm trying to override. However it doesn't work. Its like the <code>toString()</code> method isn't overriding because I'm getting the default <code>toString()</code> output. However, I'm using Netbeans and it acknowledges the override and even takes me to to <code>Calendar.toString()</code> when I click the override link. So I'm stuck, any help would be appreciated.</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.
