Using Objects and variables from a different Class

[rikstar]

I would like to know how to call a Vector Object in one method of my Class to another method in another Class. Did u get that?
Okay here it is, I have a Class called "MyVector", in there I have a method called PopVector(), where I have created a Vector Object called "sentence". What i now need is to be able to call the vector "sentence" into my second class "MyVector2" and then into a method called OptionsPromt() within that class. Complex?? I think so! Can it be done and how?
Cheers.

class MyVector{
   String[] PopVector(){
       String[] sentence = {"what","ever","the","sentence","is"};
   return sentence;
   }
}
*****************
class MyVector2{
   myVector mv = new MyVector();
   String[] gotSentence = mv.PopVector();
   void OptionsPrompt(){
      //here you can use gotSentence
      //OR you could have grabbed it here instead
   }
}

Cindy,
I don't understand your explanation. How would MyVector2's OptionsPrompt() has access to MyVector's PopVector()?
When you defined OptionsPrompt(), did you actually mean:
void OptionsPrompt(0)
{
//something something
}
and what does the (0) means?
Thanks

How would MyVector2's OptionsPrompt() has access to MyVector's PopVector()?

MyVector2 has a local variable, called mv, which is an instance of MyVector. So any method or variable (not defined protected or private) of MyVector will be accessable. In this case you would get to it by saying something like:

... = mv.PopVector() ;

Sorry I typoed on the original post. I didn't get the shift key down and typed a 0 instead of a ).
void OptionsPrompt(0{
should be
void OptionsPrompt(){
