RE: Free form defined Java procedure

It was a combination of the two things, I typed the object name like David mentioned and I needed to add Dim(2) after the Like statement to get it to work. Not quite sure why I needed the dim(2) there as Values is already defined as an array but I'll take it. Thank you for the help. 😊

You typo'ed the class name for String...

Object(*Java:'jav.lang.String')

should be

Object(*Java:'java.lang.String')

I know it's not a class path error and that it does exist because I have codded it in fixed format and it calls the method just fine. This is what I have, could anyone help me out with what I have defined incorrectly please?
