Hi Tim, In this case, I have to display the sorted list (ascending and descending) for names, etc. How do I do this? How can I pull the objects from the back-end. I am thinking to use collections.sort(list, comparator)as you mentioned or use sortedset and using arraylist (or hashset) to hold objects. For searching, I am thinking to use hashtable, but have no idea what's the next step. I use the EJB as back-end and has not implemented it yet.
If you can give me feedback on this or give me some kinds of ideas, then it'll be great. Thanks for your help.
