Hello everyone I am a new to java and I am trying to get help with my inventory program. Here is the assignment ..Modify the Inventory Program by adding a button to the GUI that allows the user to move
to the first item, the previous item, the next item, and the last item in the inventory. If the
first item is displayed and the user clicks on the Previous button, the last item should
display. If the last item is displayed and the user clicks on the Next button, the first item
should display.
• Add a company logo to the GUI using Java graphics classes. I am posting the code that I have so far from inventory 4 but i cant get it to compile and run and dont know where to start to complete this portion. Here is the code

/******************************************************************
* Modify the Inventory Program to use a GUI. 
* The GUI should display the information
* one product at a time, including the item number, 
* the name of the product, the number of units in stock,
* the price of each unit, and the value of the inventory 
* of that product. In addition, the GUI should display 
* the value of the entire inventory, the additional attribute, 
* and the restocking fee.

Post the errors that you are receiving and what problem you are having with it. You can't expect others to read the entire code line by line and debug it for you.

Also, please use the search feature in this forum for "inventory program" and see what help you can gleam from those threads. We have helped a few people with this exact assignment series recently and there are many posts.

we're not here to do your homework for you, and we're not going to go through hundreds of lines of code to find where your errors are located.

If you are getting compiler errors (which you should as you say it doesn't compile) solve those.
If you can't for whatever reason, post the error and relevant parts of the code only and maybe someone can help you.

Same with other problems, we're NOT going to do it all for you.

I am one of the people helped through this recently.
Search on my name, there should be more than enough detail in those posts to answer any question for this assignment.
I am pretty sure I asked them all! :o)

Hello,

I will do that now and see what I can find. I have to get this one done before I can start on part 6.
