I'm taking intro to Java and I am just brutal at it. No matter how many hours I practice or study I just don't get it. I got this much done but now I'm getting this.

Exception in thread "main" java.util.NoSuchElementException: No line found
  at java.util.Scanner.nextLine(Scanner.java:1585)
  at Lab11.main(Lab11.java:89)

I have no idea where I went wrong. Any guidance would be great. Thanks.

Focus on : Exception in thread "main" java.util.NoSuchElementException: No line found

Look at this piece of code.

 while (inFile.hasNext())        // Use a while loop to read in numbers from the file until the end
    {       
        inFile.nextLine();
        fileName = inFile.nextLine();

Say your file has only one line. Then, inFile.nextLine(); has already read it. After which there NO more lines. So, remove inFile.nextLine().

Your code should now be:

 while (inFile.hasNext())        // Use a while loop to read in numbers from the file until the end
    {       
        fileName = inFile.nextLine();

Also, as syb0rg mentioned please refrain from using too many next functions at once. You'd only confuse yourself.
