Look at the apidocs for String at
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/String.html
Notice that there is a constructor that takes an char array as argument.

String s = new String( char[] );

Ever try the javadocs? Really helpful!

Look at the different valueOf methods. There is one that takes a char array
as argument.

Thanks a lot.
The constructor did work.
But i get trouble with the valueof method.
i declared a String text and an array of char as below:

String text;
char[] letter;
......
......
text=valueof(letter);

I ALWAYS GET A COMPILER ERROR FOR THE METHOD valueof(cannot resolve symbol).

It is not obvious to the newbie you have to look at both the target
and source classes, and that char[] is associated with Character. It
is also not obvious you need to scan the constructors too.

The fault lies with the Java class designers. The conversion methods
were named with the casual abandon of French irregular verbs
..

Do you intend to use the static method in String? You need the class
name:

test = String.valueOf(letter);
