You are getting a null-pointer exception, because you have allocated the space for 100 array elements, but you still need to initialize them:
So before accessing a1[i].text you need to initialize it by calling a1[i] = new Array()
Also I am quite sure, that you actually wanted to create some other kind of object, not Array. Array the class you are currently writing, as I understand, so you probably want to have multiple Strings, e.g. String[].

These method used to work in my first version without any problem and now they are suddenly throwing null pointer exception when I am rewriting the code and was doing unit testing for these methods.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException

What I am trying to accomplish is the following: 1. folder1 consist of files which have 33 characters in their file name. I want to pick all those files which have number 9 in their 33th position.
