jFileChooser

[ArneBassez]

Hey,

I have made a jFileChooser using a jFrame form.
How do I:

1. Return the FileName or Path of the file (either will do)
2. Write the "opened" file to my database

I hope some genius can help me out here..

Thanks in advance

Instead of using a JFrame Form. I wrote the code myself using:

A simple file chooser to see what it takes to make one of these work : File Chooser*«*Swing JFC*«*Java

Sorry, does that mean your problem is solved? I'm not sure what's in that tutorial that isn't in the one I posted.

[ArneBassez]

Well the problem is solved, but I had to write it myself instead of using the premade JFileChooser( from the GUI palette).

[ArneBassez]

Thx for the respons btw :)

Oh, you mean you had to write code instead of using a GUI builder? That's probably a good idea anyway. Ditch the GUI builder if you want to learn how to program.

Ditch the GUI builder if you want to learn how to program.

I second the recommendation, with one change:
Ditch the GUI builder until you learn how to program. It may appear to be a boon to beginners, but it's actually an advanced tool -- as you've just discovered.
