Code:

import java.awt.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class FileToVector {
    private JScrollPane getContent() {
        Vector<String> vector = new Vector<String>();
        JTextArea textArea = new JTextArea();
        File file = new File("FileToVector.java");
        Scanner scanner = null;
        try {
            scanner = new Scanner(file);
        } catch(FileNotFoundException e) {
            System.out.println("file not found: " + e.getMessage());
        }
        while(scanner.hasNextLine()) {
            String line = scanner.nextLine();
            vector.addElement(line);
        }
        scanner.close();
        for(int j = 0; j < vector.size(); j++)
            textArea.append(vector.get(j) + "\n");
        return new JScrollPane(textArea);
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        JFrame f = new JFrame();
        f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        f.getContentPane().add(new FileToVector().getContent());
        f.setSize(400,400);
        f.setLocation(200,200);
        f.setVisible(true);
    }
}

Substitute a text file name in place of the java file. It should work okay.

Yes.
