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.
