Hey there,
I'm not doing a project or anything like that but I'm just playing around on java and was wondering how to make a simple textbox that I can use to enter numbers.

Thanks

JTextField numberEnter = new JTextField("Enter numbers here", 20);

Does this code work in Ready To Program (the compiler I'm using).
Also what is more of the code to make a textbox

You need to import the class.
import javax.swing.JTextField;

And then it should run fine once you add it to the frame or panel

Sorry, It's still not working. In Ready To Program what template should I be using for this. Thanks

you can do JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Input Text Here"). but u need to have javax.swing.* Maybe its not what you are looking for, maybe it is. Just my 2 [pennies].

Can you paste the code you have and post it here so I can see what you are doing? Thanks

Have you done any GUI coding in Java before?

If not you should look into GUI programming with Java.

Here is the code I have so far:
[code]
// The "T" class.
import javax.swing.*;

public class T
{
public static void main (String[] args)
{
// Place your code here
JOptionPane.showInputDialog ("Input Text Here");



} // main method
} // T class
[code/]
It comes up with the text field that I input with but how do I use what I input to the field in a program. I have to be able to print out a row of numbers like this:
1=4
2=5
3=6
4=7
5=8
6=9
7=10
8=11
9=12
10=13
then I want to be able to edit the value on the right(4-13). Is there a way to do this by using the text boxes or any similar easy ways???

Store the user input as string variables and then use the parseint method to change them into numbers. you can then reassign the values of those variables as needed

Sorry...I'm new to using textboxes in java so how do I take the number inputted into the textboxes and assign it to a number on the left. Just a little side not the left side numbers above(1-10) will actually go from 1-320 when I'm done. Thanks again for all the great help.
