You need not convert the string to stringBuffer as String has charAt.[color=blue]

buffy.charAt( i ) returns a character[color=blue]

Try this

char[] ch = new char[1];
for( i = 0; i <strEntered.len gth(); i++ ){
ch[0] = strEntered.char At(i);
arrayEntered[i] = new String(ch);
}

hi
check this as well
use wrapper classes

for(int i
Character

Re: input string characters into an array

hi Harry
sorry my previous post was incomplete ....
use wrapper classes

Character ch;
for(i=0;i<strEn trd.length();i+ +)
{
ch=new Character(strEn trd.charAt(i));
arrEntrd[i]=ch.toString();
}

or on-the-fly like

for(i=0;i<strEn trd.length();i+ +)
{
arrEntrd[i]=(new Character(strEn trd.charAt(i))) .toString();
}

this should do the job
