calling a method with 'throws IOException' from another method in the same class

[rleroux]

I have a method defined as follows in a class:

public static void salary_proj_accept()throws IOException
{
statements;
}

Later in the same class I have another method

public void salaryPay(float startsalary, float salaryincrease, int
percentincreasefro, int percentincreaseto, int yearto)
{


I'm trying to call the first method by:
salary_proj_accept();
}

However when I do so, I'm told I need to throw an exception...so I
replace with:
salary_proj_accept()throw IOException

When I do, I then get:
Salaryprojection.java:89: ';' expected
salary_proj_accept()throws IOException;
^
Salaryprojection.java:89: not a statement
salary_proj_accept()throws IOException;

Is there a way that I can call my first method?

Tnx

try {
salary_proj_accept();
catch (IOException ioe) {
ioe.printStackTrace();
}

Note
- Please follow the common class/method/attribute
conventions for names, e.g. salaryProjAccept()
when posting code
- comp.lang.java.help is a good group for those
starting Java.
