How exactly do you use charAt in java. I understand some of the basics but how do I allow for it to read each character.

Your 'String' is an array of characters.
It's (kind of) like char word[]; in a sense.
for example:

String name = new String("Bob");

understand? Then:

name.charAt(0) = 'B';

is true and:

name.charAt(2) = 'b';

and finally:

name.charAt(1) = 'o';

so to read characters, say it as an array. Use a for or while loop.
To look one step ahead of the array, say it like this when num is zero:

name.charAt(num+1) = 'o';

Does that help you?

I know that helped you.
I am more helpful over the computer than in person.

so will this work?

char test = new char[50];
String input;
input = Keyboard.readString();
for(int i = 0; i < input.length(); i++)
{
blah[i] = input.charAt(i);
}

Sounds like a good idea.
Try it out, I see no reason why it shouldn't work.
