greetings

I have created an arraylist, which i have used to store objects of a purpose
desinged class that holds a string and integer, and the toString returns
both in a string "ie return(myString +myInteger);".  I would like to know
how to access the methods of my class from the arraylist.

ie myArrayList.get(index).someMethodFromMyClass

Interstingly enough, i can create new objects and add them to my list.  I
can get the values of these objects, but i cant invoke methods built into
them to modify their values.

The reason i have used arraylist is so that i dont have define the size of
the arraylist - and for what i am doing this is an advantage.  However if
you have any better ideas then i would be glad to hear them.

Please if you know how i can access these method i would appreciate it.
