Emun is part of java 1.5 and therefor not supported by J2me

Now, if you mean the Enumeration object, that can be converted to a string, just check the api docs for a "sort of" example.

String name;

StringBuffer buffer;

While(enumer.hasElements())

{

name=enumer.nextElement();

///do with the string what you want or

buffer.append(enumer.nextElement().Tostring());

}

buffer.toString()

that 's will work plz note that in jdk1.5 enum is a keyword

In your api docs... Api docs are one of the most important things when programming, so always have them near!

Sure: split the strings on some split character, and then put the individual stings in a Vector. A decent spilt function should be out here somewhere, just use the search.
