}
}
}

Yet when I run the program, I get the following output:

null null null 0.0 0.0 0.0

try something like this instead:

fileToRead = new Scanner(new File("c:\\ggg.txt")); //point the scanner method to a file

            for (String line; fileToRead.hasNextLine() && (line = fileToRead.nextLine()) != null; ) {
                System.out.println(line);//print each line as its read
}

as you can see mine is different in the way that it will only print the line if a line does exist and its not null, which might be whats giving your grief. where i print the line is where you would:
mgr.inputInfo("name",line);//not i dont use nextLine() again else it will skip the last line, i use an assigned variable in the for statement

Can you edit your post and wrap the code in code tags? Use the [CODE} icon above the input box.
The unformatted code is hard to read.

Where do you print the lines you show?
Where do you give values to the variables that are being printed as null and 0?
Where and when does the program execute the code where the variables are given values?
If you do NOT execute any code that gives the variables values, their values will be the default value.
