I appreciate the response! I have been out of coding for quite a few years, and didn't have a clue how to do it in Java. Thanks again, Tone Fabian, that works like a champ! I appreciate the response!

You can add or subtract it now: result = 12313 - e; //the result is 12313 minus the field-entry Does it work for you? If not, just post again here! @Tone
you can do it like that:

//create new integer
int i = 83;
int result = 0;

result = i * i; //result of 83 * 83

To get a integer from an EditField you can do the following:

//first you need to create a new EditField:
EditField ef = new EditField(”Enter a Number:”,”123″);

//now, to get the integer from that EditField you do the following:
int e = Integer.parseInt(ef.getText()); //parsed to Integer
//make sure that the entered value in the EditField is of type integer

Now in the ‘e’ Variable you have the value from the Field.
You can add or subtract it now:

result = 12313 – e; //the result is 12313 minus the field-entry

Does it work for you? If not, just post again here!

For instance how to take input, manipulate the data usign mathametical operands, and then display? I know it is simple, but cannot for the life of me figure it out. Thanks!
