The couple times I tried it didn't work but after a couple times it did. The times that it doesn?t in the future I will try the Ctrl+Space command. Sorry for the unnecessary post. I even tried searching but didn?t find anything. Maybe because it already exists. Haha.

Thanks!

Your friends:

crtl-1
ctrl-2
ctrl-space

altshift+j

Those are the major functiosn I use. Autocomplete rocks. Even if you type "for" in it will autocomplete the for loop for you!

I am new to Eclipse and was previously using jGrasp for something quick and dirty.

I want to get more familiar with something better than that and Eclipse looks very promising with a seemingly large array of plugins available.

Thanks again for all of your suggestions. I appreciate the help!
