    Shouting with exclamation points and typing obscenities will not get you help any faster. Further, your question doesn't make any sense. Do you just want to have a JTextField show a double? Use Double.parseDouble and String.valueOf to convert between doubles and Strings

    i need to make that double value into a string
    Read post #2. It gives methods for going each way.
    Look at the String class for methods to create Strings.
    Look at the Double class for methods to create doubles.
    Read the API doc for these classes: Java Platform SE 6

    Scroll down in the lower left window.
