JFile Chooser

[karno]

hi..... iam just a beginer using NetBeans...
I want to ask how to make JFile Chooser in Java NetBeans to be like File chooser interface in Windows ..?? :D

I'm not sure if this is a Netbeans-question or a Swing-question, but:

The FileDialog-class has a Windows-interface:

FileDialog fd = new FileDialog(parentFrame);
fd.setLocation(50, 50);
fd.setVisible(true);

Are you using NetBeans inbuilt UI class? Like JDialog and so on. If so you can easily drag-drop the controls and customize accordingly.

[Eranga]

    JFileChooser fileChooser = new JFileChooser(".");
    FileFilter filter = new ExtensionFileFilter("Files", new String[] { "DOC", "DOCX" });
    fileChooser.setFileFilter(filter);
