Arrays of objects

So I have an array of objects of a bank account. I need to have a search method that will search the array based on the account's name and return the account's information.

public String linearSearch (Banking[] bankArray, String key,int counter)

{

for (int i = 0; i < counter; i++)

{

if (key.equals(bankArray[i]).getAccountName)

return bankAccount[i].getAccountName;

}//End For

return"Nothing Found";

}//End linearSearch

This method (is supposed to) search the array based on the "getAccountName" field of the objects in the array...but it

s not working. is there another comparison method I should be using besides .equal?
