The toughest programs I was writing was an application receiving mails, unpacking attachments, analysing them (inside there are data from computer systems, from partners of company I was working with) - i.e. I had to guess type of report and import it into propper table in database.

There was also a GUI front-end for database, checking validity of input fields, fast searching, and so on.

I haven't wrote anything big in Java. Just small details....

Toughest would be Spellcheck along with Inputting....
Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning. :)

Either my Excel remake (without formulas) or Tetris (which I'm still working on; mostly the rotation thing)

Toughest program I ever wrote was a Calculus Graphing Utility. It takes an equation and draws it based on window size. You can switch between definite integral and derivative mode. In definite integral mode you can observe the area underneath the curve by dragging two vertical bars across the x axis. In derivative mode you can find the slope at any point along the curve in real time. It was my second semester Computer Science II  Honors project I did while I was still in Computer Science I AP and bored as all get out.

EDIT: 17 at the time, wrote this a few weeks ago.
