Are you asking how to have one button that when pressed will select the next word towards the top of the list of words and another button that will select the next word towards the bottom of the list?

You will need to add action listeners to the buttons. The listener code will need the logic to move the selection to the next word in the list as determined by which button was pressed.

Are you using JButtons on your GUI to control the action
or are you going to use the keyboard up & down arrows?
