creating a chart in Java

I am trying to create a chart in Java that shows mortgage payments, that as the years go on, the amount of interest paid goes down, and the amount of principal paid goes up. The calculator itself works fine, but the chart only shows 7 years and only shows only the interest. It may be related, but when I hit "calculate" it changes the values.

well, perhaps post your code?

yes, I realized I submitted it after I hit submit. sorry! tried to edit it, but then you commented.

Attached is the main calculator code, the chart code and a text file the calculator calls.
