title: ArrayList<String> cannot be converted to string.
body: <p>Okay, I'm making a CD collection Program and everything was going well as I followed along my lesson but then I ran into the problem of wanting to make it show up in the jTextArea. I bet there is a simple solution but I cannot find one. I'm new to this and any answer would be appreciated, I also looked on here for answers but found nothing I understood.</p>
  
  <pre><code>  private void jButton1ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {                                         
      jButton1.setEnabled(true);
      jButton2.setEnabled(false);
      jButton3.setEnabled(false);
      jButton4.setEnabled(false);      //buttons                                       
  
      ArrayList&lt;String&gt; CD = new ArrayList();  //list
      Collections.addAll(CD, "\nEd Sheeran - X\n", "\nNirvana - Nevermind\n", "\nShania Twain - Up!\n", "\nLights - Little Machines\n", "\nTaylor Swift - 1989\n");          //PreAdded CDs
      Collections.sort(CD);
      jTextArea1.setText(CD);    //it works if i do System.out.println(CD) ? I need it to go to jTextArea1 though.
