How to get Multiple records from functions

Question

Hi Everyone
Im new to this stuff. Im trying  through JCO. As far as the single recordsets like data of customer or article are concerned i get it through an array.
But i wanted to retrieve
1- Whole tables like (all articles)
2- Selected articles. or Customer order details (articles in PO)
That means multiple records in one go.
Later on ill display it in JTables.
Like for the past three days i was googling around. Thought like this ones not for my stomach. Came across this Forum. Thought its worth posting a request.
Here is the code
public String[] KSearch(String Knr) throws Exception{
                        String[] Result=new String[11];
                        IFunctionTemplate ftemplate= Con.repository.getFunctionTemplate("SucheKUNDE");
                        if (ftemplate == null)
                                throw new Exception("Funktionstemplate nicht gefunden");
                        JCO.Function function = ftemplate.getFunction();
                        JCO.ParameterList input = function.getImportParameterList();
                        input.setValue(Knr,"FieldName");
                   JCO.Client client = JCO.getClient(Con.conPoolId);
                   client.execute(function);
                   JCO.ParameterList output = function.getExportParameterList();
                   Result[0]=output.getString("NAME");
                   Result[1]=output.getString("VORNAME");
                   Result[2]=output.getString("GDATE");
                   Result[3]=output.getString("TELEFON");
                   Result[4]=output.getString("MAIL");
                   Result[5]=output.getString("STRASSE");
                   Result[6]=output.getString("PLZ");
                   Result[7]=output.getString("ORT");
                   Result[8]=output.getString("KONTO");
                   Result[9]=output.getString("INSTITUT");
                   Result[10]=output.getString("BLZ");
                                                                                JCO.releaseClient(client);
                   return Result;
now instead of a single record what if im expecting a number of records, like what if i need customer over 25. Which means more than one. I have to get in tabular format so that i can display it in JTables.
Hope it a bit illustrative.
Regards

public String[] KSearch(String Knr) throws Exception{
String[] Result=new String11;
IFunctionTemplate ftemplate= Con.repository.getFunctionTemplate("SucheKUNDE");
if (ftemplate == null)
throw new Exception("Funktionstemplate nicht gefunden");
JCO.Function function = ftemplate.getFunction();
JCO.ParameterList input = function.getImportParameterList();
input.setValue(Knr,"FieldName");
JCO.Client client = JCO.getClient(Con.conPoolId);
client.execute(function);
// Maybe here you should use a JCO.Table Class to get the //ExportParameters such as
JCO.Table output = function.getTableParameterList().getTable( "tabelname" );
// so you can use setRow() Function to get the information of the //relevant record. such as the 3. Costum
output.setRow(3);// Record Number
Result[0]=output.getString("NAME");
Result[1]=output.getString("VORNAME");
Result[2]=output.getString("GDATE");
Result[3]=output.getString("TELEFON");
Result[4]=output.getString("MAIL");
Result[5]=output.getString("STRASSE");
Result[6]=output.getString("PLZ");
Result[7]=output.getString("ORT");
Result[8]=output.getString("KONTO");
Result[9]=output.getString("INSTITUT");
Result10=output.getString("BLZ");
JCO.releaseClient(client);
return Result;
Ｉam not sure that works. But you can try it. and reply me to tell if it really works as i think.
Hope helps.
