Re: A Java Question...

Your right hand side is an Object, you need to do a cast. That is:

String test = (String)((Object)docs.elementAt(1)).elementAt(1);

or

String test = ((Doc)docs.get(1)).getDocString();

or

String test = (docs.elementAt(1)).elementAt(1).toString();

It depends on the type you have for the first field in your doc object. If it is a BigDecimal, direct cast may not work, toString() will do. You see my point.

Hope this helps.

I could possibly write a servlet to extract and then filter the data, but
I think that would defeat the purpose of having Turbine in the first

I tried:

 String test = ((Object)docs.elementAt(1)).elementAt(1);
 return test;

the compiler did not complain, but Velocity rejected it. Really running
out of ideas. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

I have a db Table consisting of 10 (say col_A, col_B, col_C, col_D, ...
col_J) columns.  After accessing these data using a PullTool (as
suggested by Scott and Peter), I stored them in a Vector/List. Before I
display them in my .vm file, I want to perform some filtering, e.g.
select col_A = "some_Text".

The question is:

I can extract what is in the Vector as Objects which has all ten columns
in it, it returns a certain address. But How do I get data in col_A out
and perform the filtering I intended to do?

best wishes
