I am doing Gui's on Netbeans and am writing a program that sells flower ornaments and such. I have everything added to an arraylist. But when it comes to showing, I am on another tab and need to pass the arraylist to that method for display, any help? Link me to some tutorial if anything please.

Meaning I would have to display from the same button action... Can't send the Arraylist information to be used in another method? Right now I am writing down to file and up to be used in the second method in order to have the information. Any way I can do this with an array. Keeping everything in their respective tabs/ methods?

Can't send the Arraylist information to be used in another method?
Why cant you pass the details in an ArrayList as a parameter to another method.
public void doSomething(ArrayList list){
//Get the arraylist details and do the necessary task
}Clearly state as to where the SubmitName() is called from?
Any way I can do this with an array
ArrayList is also sort of an extendable array. So if you are able to achieve by array, it should be possible to do the same by making use of arraylist also
