If you have a JLabel that you wish to use for displaying the results of a calculation of two floats, what methods() are use for this?
Thanks, Dave.

This is a job for java.text.NumberFormat or maybe java.text.DecimalFormat

Thanks Jose.
The code I used was this: l[i].setText(""+tally[i]);
The I tried earlier was l[i].setText(+tally[i]); and obviously that was no good.
Anyway I'll read the stuff you suggested and thanks again mate.
