    Re: how do i write data to text file

    Hi,

    What does the error say?

    You can write a string value to a text file like this:
    FileWriter writer = new FileWriter("test.txt");
    writer.write("this is a test file");
    writer.close();




    If you try this, what error do you get?

    Regards,
    Geert Arys

    Hi
    Try this. It works. You had not catched the exception..

    import java.io.FileWriter;

    class FileWriterTest
    {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
    try
    {
    FileWriter fwriter = new FileWriter("Amex.txt");
    fwriter.write("testing");
    fwriter.close();;
    }
    catch(Exception e){}
    }
    }
