The code is a sentinel controlled loop that terminates when "quit" is entered into the title field. Once the sentinel value is entered, the value of entire inventory is displayed.
I have written the code for JOptionPanes to take advantage of the showInputDialog with success. However, I could not get my product information to display.
Nah, not asking too much, though you may want to give us more information: code in code tags and actual error messages.I kept getting errors and couldn't figure out why. So, I thought perhaps I was asking too much of a simple component.

I do everything small, already. I'm just learning so nothing is a bigger headache than 10 error messages and not having a clue what the real problem is. So, I write in pieces, compile, execute, and debug before I add anything new.
However, I don't know exactly how to fit these GUI components together. The examples I have to go by are tiny programs, not so much pieces put together. I have an example for labels; I have an example for text fields; I have an example for check boxes, one for combo boxes, etc. But they are separate little programs. I do not have one cohesive example of all of these components represented in an application.
Do you have a better understanding of my problem?
I never know what to put in my signature...

I'll take your word for it, Campbell, but nobody gets to be called 'superb' by me until they are 'superb' to me. (starts laughing)Rob is a superb chap.

Campbell, I've had 8 weeks of online instruction on Java. I have no previous programming experience. I'm smart enough, but we are talking only 8 weeks. And we only got into GUIs a week and a half ago. Now, I spend anywhere from 8 to 14 hours a day, 5 - 7 days a week studying, but, yes, easy was what I was thinking, if it will accomplish what I need.
