copied!<blockquote> <p>i was just think is there a easier way, for example i already have the Jfilechoser open a "save as box" when the "submit" button is pressed so is there a easier way to create the file (saving the gui infomation in a txt file) ?</p> </blockquote> <p>This is a continuation on your <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4317483/java-item-listener">previous question</a>. You should just get the selected file and write to it with help of any <a href="http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/io/Writer.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>Writer</code></a>, like <a href="http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/io/PrintWriter.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>PrintWriter</code></a>.</p> <pre><code>File file = fileChooser.getSelectedFile(); PrintWriter writer = new PrintWriter(file); try { writer.println(txtField1.getText().trim()); writer.flush(); } finally { writer.close(); } </code></pre> <p>Don't overcomplicate by creating a <code>new File()</code> on a different location and calling <code>File#createFile()</code>. Just writing to it is sufficient.</p> <h3>See also:</h3> <ul> <li><a href="http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/io/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Java IO tutorial</a></li> </ul> <hr> <p><strong>update</strong> here's an <a href="http://sscce.org" rel="nofollow noreferrer">SSCCE</a>, you can just copy'n'paste'n'compile'n'run it.</p> <pre><code>package com.example; import java.awt.Desktop; import java.io.File; import java.io.IOException; import java.io.PrintWriter; import javax.swing.JFileChooser; public class Test { public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { JFileChooser fileChooser = new JFileChooser(); if (fileChooser.showSaveDialog(null) == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) { File file = fileChooser.getSelectedFile(); PrintWriter writer = new PrintWriter(file); try { writer.println("Hello"); writer.flush(); } finally { writer.close(); } Desktop.getDesktop().open(file); } } } </code></pre>
