I need help with my Java application Database

[crystal2005]

Hello guys, I'm a beginner in Java application programming. I started to write a Java application in which link to MS Access database.

I encountered a problem in deletion function. E.g. I would like to delete one record in database, it always shows "record not found" in my program, even if the data has been deleted.

I tried to used function for each choices. But the compiler showed that we can't used function in static void. Is there anyway to use function in public static?

One more thing, as a beginner in Java programming, i need a comment about my program. Thank you very much guys.

For starters, you can use only one BufferedReader object to read your input. And for the delete message you have

if(select==2)
{
int delete=0,loop;

.
.
.nowhere here is the value of delete changed
.
.
if(delete!=0) // so at this point delete = 0
{
System.out.println("Employee with EmpNo " +entryD+ " has been deleted");
}
else
{
System.out.println("Record not found");
}

How do i use only one BufferedReader object to read the input ??

[r035198x]

Just declare one buffered reader and call it something like input, then all the time you need to get input just call readLine on that same reader object.

[dmjpro]

make one object of ...............

BufferedReader input = new BuufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));

whenever u want to read a line ... then call input.readLine()

best of luck.

[dmjpro]

one co-incidence happened here.......

when i was answering this question .... then no answer was of the second question.

but when i finished answering then i saw r035198x already answered the second question.

and the both answer is same ...... goood co-incidence.....

i m enjoying this site much more than before .......

best of luck crystal2005 again.
