Hi everyone:
This project is driving me crazy and I need some help.
I would post it here but I have worked so hard on it that I don't want someone else in my class to steal it.
So if I can pm it to someone that would be great.

here is part of my code where I'm having problems.
Problem is at public static void main(String[] args) {
The method main cannot be declared static; static methods can only be declared in a static or top level type..
RedSon told me to look for "The second problem probably comes from using arlist again but I cant be sure because I dont see how arlist is declared."
tried to change that but still I get the error.

After following Microsofts admonition to reformat my system before doing a final compilation of my app I got many warnings/errors upon compiling an rtf file created in word.

Missing Help Files When I enter "recordset" as the keyword and search the Visual Basic Help index, I get many topics of interest in the resulting list. But there isn't any information available from clicking on many of the available topics (mostly methods but some properties are also unavailable). This same problem occurs with many, if not most, keywords. Is there any way I can activate these "missing" help topics? HELP!
