    If you're getting an error, please post it. To better communicate what you're trying to do, it would help to post the input file and show what the program is supposed to do.

    Default Re: Remove words

    There are three ArrayLists. Which one(s) are empty?
    Does the contents of the others look correct?
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
