So declare "filescan" static then.
Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1. static Scanner filescan = null;
It's worth noting that making everything static and calling it from main() is not how Java is meant to be used, though intro courses often start with such programs. Java is an object-oriented language and should be taught as such. Making it all static relegates it to a procedural program and defeats the whole purpose.
