    Please edit your post and wrap your code with code tags:
    [code=java]
    YOUR CODE HERE
    [/code]
    to get highlighting and preserve formatting.

    What are the steps the code needs to do to copy data from one place to another?
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    Put the following in front of the code:
    [code=java]

    YOUR CODE is HERE

    Put the following after the code:
    [/code]

    --- Update ---

    What are the steps the code needs to do to copy data from one place to another?
    Where is the data to be copied from?
    Where do you want to show that data?

    how to get data button to work
    Is the listener called when the data button is pressed?

    take user doubles and show it in label,
    Where is "user doubles"?
    What label do you want to show it in? Do you know what method to call to set the text of a label?

    Yes the Listener is called when the data button is pressed.
    I want to show it in label named "data".
    I dont know what method to call to set the text of a label (New to Java sorry).

    I dont know what method to call
    Look at the API doc for the class you are working with to see what methods it has that will do what you want.
    If the class extends another class, then you might have to read the API doc for that class also to see if it has a useful method.

    The API doc: Java Platform SE 7

    Find the class in the lower left, click on it and the API doc will be displayed in the main frame.
