OK, I have an application I made that when a user presses a NewEntry button, the GUI opens up so the user can type in a journal entry. When they press done, it publishes the multiple fields to a file called 'Journal.txt' I want to make a built in file reader that reads the files. I have made it so that the 4 fields have designated lengths, but I dont know how I will distinguish between two entrys. . . Please help.
If you want a (kindof) working version of what I have, http://tdwalden.googlepages.com/Journal.jnlp
It uses Java Web Start, but It just wont publish the file, please help me with that, too. |

Elaborate.
Why can't you just have a line that designates a new entry?
Ex)
File.txt:
ENTRY - 5/6/06 06:23:54
blah blah balh
blah blah balh
blaha balh blah
ENTRY - 5/7/07 05:12:34
blah blah
Blah blah
Then just search the files for lines starting with ENTRY
I can't really understand if this is what you mean or not, hence the first line of this post. |

if they have desiganted lengths, then store each entry on a line.
use String.substring(int,int) to separate the entries out. |
