Loading a string array into J2ME List Class

[Ciaran Duffy]

Hi - need some urgent help.
Trying to use List to display the output of a string array on screen as an IMPLICIT list.
If I declare exactly what strings are to be in the listArray when I declare it I can use the method without any trouble and it works fine.
list = new List("Staff: ", List.IMPLICIT, listArray, null);
However, I want to load the up the String array listArray with other strings in a for loop:
for(int i = 1; i <5; i++)
{
listArray[i] = inputString;
}
When I try this my program stalls - am i messing up with how I'm loading the string or is there another problem? Will List accept a string array this is compiled in this way?
Am programming for Palm BTW.
Cheers!

make sure when you go over the array you created that you don't go out of bounds. e.g.
String[] stringArray2=new String [5];
String inputString="hello";

for(int i = 0; i <5; i++)
{
stringArray2[i] = inputString;
}
the above should run fine and populate the list with the inputString. notice i start with i=0, which helps to make sure i don't get an index array out of bounds exception.
