title: putting data from 2 classes into one array with 2 packages
body: <p>Ok.</p>
  
  <p>since my confusion has died down i think i may have worded my question wrong.</p>
  
  <p>i have the classes "GenericMessage" "email" and "fax" in one package.</p>
  
  <p>"email" and "fax" have one variable in them which is a String.</p>
  
  <p>all of the above classes are in a package named "Message".</p>
  
  <p>now i have created a new package named "Outbox"
  it contains a String array and is trying too take the Strings from "fax" and "email" into the one array.</p>
  
  <pre><code> package Outbox;
  
  public class Outbox extends GenericMessage
  {
   GenericMessage messageList[];
  
   public Outbox (GenericMessage [] messageList )
   {
       messageList = new GenericMessage[50];
   }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>my problem is that i cannot call Generic Message from the other package.
  how do i do this?</p>
