Hi all,

i need a help here..

i am doing document search in my application...i have all my files inside a folder..folder contains many folders and inside many files are there..if i specify one string it should display all the files that contains that word.
for example if i search a word "welcome" if any file that contains welcome at any part of document it should specify that file along with the path and then the file should open when i click the link..pls tell me how to do that..what is the concept behind that.

For listing the files inside a give directory, take a look at the methods of class File: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/io/File.html

For reading text files, take a look at the basic I/O tutorial: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutor.../io/index.html

Finally, to see if one string is contained in another, take a look at the methods of class String: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/ap...ng/String.html
