    Welcome to the forum! Please read this topic to learn how to post code in code or highlight tags and other useful info for new members.

    Please post your code, error, and other info you think will be helpful correctly per the above link. Most won't follow links or download and read attachments.

    "Cannot find symbol" means the compiler encountered a variable or method name that was not declared within the scope the error occurred, so is therefore unknown.
