Browsing Directory Structure and opening a file in the subdirectory

[nehal trivedi]

Here is my question !
I am browsing thru the Directory structere using a Java program. I can browse, but can't open a file down in the sub-sub folder.
Any ideas, it seems to me that the constructor for the filereader is not supporting this. i might be wrong.
Please help.

nehal,
It would be easier for everyone to help you out if you posted some sample code of what you're trying to accomplish. I haven't had any problems opening files regardless of where they reside, unless the file is currently being locked by some other process.
BTW, remember to put your code between the open and closing UBB code tags.
E.g.

  
        File checkFile = new File(someFileName);
        if (checkFile.exists())
        {
            InputSource inputSource = new InputSource(new BufferedReader(new FileReader(someName)));
        }
        else
        {
            // Handle missing file.
        }

Allow me to also suggest the methods "isFile()" and "canRead()" (in class "File") which may also be applicable here.
Hope this helps.
Good Luck,
Avi.
