    Default Re: non static variable this cannot be referenced from a static context

    main is a static method. It can only reference static elements in the source. Change the Credit class to static to allow main to access it.

    Please edit your post and wrap your code with code tags:

    [code]
    **YOUR CODE GOES HERE**
    [/code]

    to get highlighting and preserve formatting.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
