ummm ok i think the logic in your code is kinda screwy...
here is what your should be doing.
create the gui.
get the resultset...
have code that looks like this for nextRecord...
protected void displayNextRecord(){
  // we do not call next here because we already called it last time
  surname = rs.getString("Lastname");
  name = rs.getString("Firstname");
  populateFields();
  if(!rs.next(){
    btncontacts.setEnabled(false);// i'm not sure what btncontacts is but we want to disable next becuase there are no more records...
// in your intitalization code you need to do this...
// you old stuff ending with...
ResultSet rs = cstatement.executeQuery();
// the new stuff...
if(rs.first()){
  displayNextRecord();
}else{
  btncontacts.setEnabled(false);//the result set is empty
}ok the real problem you are having is that you are trying to display one record at a time but you are scrolling
through the entire result set using while(rs.next()... what you
want to do is create the result set once and scroll through
it one item at a time with your gui.
the example method i have given displays the data from the current
row in your gui. then it advances the result set forward one row if possible. this method assumes that the result set will always
be positioned on a valid row thus the need for calling
rs.first() before we originally call displayNextRecord()
well i hope you find this helpful.
