App Help

[Doctor Cactus]

Hi, I am writing a Java application and I want to know how to create 'Save' and 'Save As' dialogs as in MS Windows applications. Speaking of MS Windows applications, does anyone know how to change the look and feel of standard Java menus,JFileChoosers,Save Dialogs etc to look like MS Windows applications. If so, could someone please post a code example?

Help is much appreciated.

I think the Save vs Save As is up to you. Save does it, Save As prompts for where to save it.

For LAF Do a search for something like the following: UIManager.setLookAndFeel("com.sun.java.swing.plaf. windows.WindowsLookAndFeel");

And read more on Suns' tutorial. There are few examples as well.
