arraylist - Java with JPanel -

i'm building form in user can come in in employee info , display in textarea field have display or "see all" button cant work. \

i saving each submission saved array called resultshold , array saved array called line both arrays hold 1 submission instead of multiple - tested , each time display contents of array 'line' shows lastly submission meaning not storing mutiple submission each time calculate button clicked - ive added counter line array set position of store "text" variable saves 1 , not mutiple- can help or guide me in right direction - below code.

public class container extends jframe { arraylist<string> resultshold = new arraylist<>(); arraylist line = new arraylist<>(); //private string[] resultshold; private final jlabel employeenamelabel; private final jlabel hoursworkedlabel; private final jlabel department; private final jlabel emptycell; private final jlabel wagelabel; private final jlabel departmentresultslabel; private final jtextfield employeenametexfield; private final jtextfield hoursworkedtextfield;

final jcombobox<string> departmentsv = new jcombobox<string>(departments); departmentsv.setvisible(true); getcontentpane().setlayout(new gridlayout(4, 5, 8, 8)); //creating text fields, labels , buttons emptycell = new jlabel(""); departmentresultslabel = new jlabel(); employeenamelabel = new jlabel("first name"); hoursworkedlabel = new jlabel("hours worked"); wagelabel = new jlabel("wage"); section = new jlabel("department"); employeenametexfield = new jtextfield(5); hoursworkedtextfield = new jtextfield(5); wagetextfield = new jtextfield(5); resultsscreen = new jtextarea(20, 50); myexitbutton = new jbutton("exit"); myexitbutton.setsize(new dimension(10, 10));

//adding labels centerpanel = new jpanel(); buttonpanel = new jpanel(); textfieldpanel = new jpanel(); myresultspanel = new jpanel(); centerpanel.setlayout(new gridlayout(0, 4, 8, 8)); centerpanel.add(employeenamelabel);

resultshold = new arraylist<>(); resultshold.add(text);

so, every time button clicked, you're recreating new list , store text inside. don't want create new list. want add together existing list.

note code awful: public fields, utilize of raw types, code commented out, java conventions not respected @ all, meaningless variable names...
