on this line :

Answer 1

You have declared emt1,emt2,emt3,emt4 as Object. In the last line where you are creating the assigning the array to the variable ST1, you are creating a String array and storing Object intances in it. This is what is causing the problem.

If you wish to use the objects in this manner and if you are sure that the emt1,emt2,emt3,emt4 objects are all strings, you can add a cast to your code like this:

    ST1 = new String[] { (String) emt1, (String) emt2, (String) emt3, (String) emt4 };

This should work.
