Need help with connecting file inputs to arrays

Question

In this assignment I have a program that will do the following: display a list of names inputed by the user in reverse order, display any names that begin with M or m, and display any names with 5 or more letters. This is all done with arrays.
That was the fun part. The next part requires me to take the names from a Notepad file, them through the arrays and then output them to a second Notepad file.
Here is the original program: (view in full screen so that the code doesn't get jumbled)
import java.io.*;       //Imports the Java library
class progB                    //Defines class
    public static void main (String[] arguments) throws IOException
        BufferedReader keyboard;                                  //<-
        InputStreamReader reader;                                 //  Allows the program to
        reader = new InputStreamReader (System.in);               //  read the the keyboard
        keyboard = new BufferedReader (reader);                  //<-
        String name;                 //Assigns the name variable which will be parsed into...
        int newnames;               //...the integer variable for the amount of names.
        int order = 0;              //The integer variable that will be used to set the array size
        String[] array;             //Dynamic array (empty)
        System.out.println (" How many names do you want to input?");   //This will get the number that will later define the array
        name = keyboard.readLine ();
        newnames = Integer.parseInt (name);                                         // Converts the String into the Integer variable
        array = new String [newnames];                                               //This defines the size of the array
        DataInput Imp = new DataInputStream (System.in);       //Allows data to be input into the array
        String temp;                                       
        int length;                                                                  //Defines the length of the array for a loop later on
            for (order = 0 ; order < newnames ; order++)                                //<-
            {                                                                           //  Takes the inputed names and
                System.out.println (" Please input name ");                            //  gives them a number according to
                temp = keyboard.readLine ();                                           //  the order they were inputed in
                array [order] = temp;                                                  //<-
            for (order = newnames - 1 ; order >= 0 ; order--)                                //<-
            {                                                                                //  Outputs the names in the reverse 
                System.out.print (" \n ");                                                   //  order that they were inputed
                System.out.println (" Name " + order + " is " + array [order]);             //<-
            for (order = 0 ; order < newnames ; order++)                                  //<-
                if (array [order].startsWith ("M") || array [order].startsWith ("m"))     //  Finds and outputs any and all
                {                                                                         //  names that begin with M or m
                    System.out.print (" \n ");                                            //
                    System.out.println (array [order] + (" starts with M or m"));         //
                }                                                                         //<-
            for (order = 0 ; order < newnames ; order++)                                            //<-
                length = array [order].length ();                                                   //
                if (length >= 5)                                                                    //  Finds and outputs names
                {                                                                                  //  with 5 or more letters
                    System.out.print (" \n ");                                                      //
                    System.out.println ("Name " + array [order] + " have 5 or more letters ");      //<-
}The notepad file contains the following names:
jim
laruie
tim
timothy
manny
joseph
matty
amanda
I have tried various methods but the one thing that really gets me is the fact that i can't find a way to connect the names to the arrays. Opening the file with FileInputStream is easy enough but using the names and then outputing them is quite hard. (unless i'm thinking too hard and there really is a simple method)

Answer 1

By "connect", do you just mean you want to put the names into an array?
array[0] = "jim"
array[1] = "laruie"
and so on?
That shouldn't be difficult at all, provided you know how to open a file for reading, and how to read a line of text from it. You can just read the line of text, put it in the array position you want, until the file is exhausted. Then open a file for writing, loop through the array, and write a line.
What part of all that do you need help with?
