I am a high school student and a beginner in programming who is currently making a "Who wants to be a Millionaire? in java. I am using swing for my game. Right now I am only able to answer to my first question. The problem I am having is that I don't know how to move to the next Question. So if you guys could look at my program and tell me how do I move to the next question? I know that this question is too for advanced programmers but I really don't have that much experience in programming. Also one other question: How do I create the help in my program (50:50, telephone and the other one)?
This is my code -

// 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14

String [] Ans2 = {"10","99","269","9","66","1","4","3025","4200","12674","15","90","10","15","39"};
String [] Ans3 = {"9","123","319","8","32","34","6","2025","2800","6782","9","45","1","14","42"};

Explanation of code - I made 4 arrays for my answers naming answer1, answer2, answer3, answer4. I made one array for my question--(same name for variable). jButton1 is the button that I push when answering a question and choose is my textField where put a, b, c, d and push jButton1. All the other labels are used in the game.
