Hi, After much head scratching and goggling I have hit a brick wall. I have implemented a hashtable (recordHolder) of arrays and I am having problems updating an array pulled from the hash table without overwriting. The order is passed from XML, is numerical and will only ever be 1, 2, and 3 so a 4-element array is used starting at [1] public void addOrder(String orderName, int order, int number ) { //get array using orderName as key int[] orderList = (int[])(recordHolder.get(orderName)); //append array at element order 1,2, or 3 orderList[order] = number; //place back into hashtable recordHolder.put(orderName, orderList);    More>>

			{
			

			

			//get array using orderName as key
			

			int[] orderList = (int[])(recordHolder.get(orderName));
			

			

			//append array at element order 1,2, or 3
			

			orderList[order] = number;
			

			

			//place back into hashtable
			

			recordHolder.put(orderName, orderList);
			

			

			}
