i get this error I'm making a GUI program, The problem i'm having is creating a code that when a user selects something a action happens.

for example, select a meal and the totalcharges changes to 2500.

Main.java:155: cannot find symbol
symbol  : variable isSeletecd
location: class java.lang.String
if (dorm[0].isSeletecd && meal[0].isSeletecd())

dorm is an array of String and the methods isSelected and setSelected (however you spell them) are meaningless for Strings. Read the tutorial on how to use a JComboBox to learn how to properly use them. You can find it here: How To Use ComboBoxes
