Copyig Data from a TABLE MODEL (TABLE) TO A FILE

Question

Hi guys,
I wont to copy data from a Default Table Model to a File can someone write a pease of code that will do that for me.
DefaultTableModel model = new DefaultTableModel();
JTable table;
public basic()
          super();
              model.addColumn("Full Name");
              model.addColumn("House No");
              model.addColumn("Address");
              model.addColumn("Town/County");
              model.addColumn("Postcode");
              model.addColumn("Telephone Number");
              model.addColumn("Email Address");             
              String[] socrates = { "Example", "33", "York RD", "Poole", "BH18 9RE", "01202776655", "[email protected]" };
              model.addRow(socrates);
          /**This is the main setup for the Address Book
          *This has the main settings for the size, title
          *And main features of the Address book.
          setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
          this.setSize(new Dimension(800, 600));
          this.setTitle("Large Print Address Book");
          this.setLayout(new FlowLayout ());
          //Main Application Parts
          JLabel welcome = new JLabel("Welcome to Thomas's Address Book v2.0.1");
          welcome.setFont(arial20);
          this.add(welcome);
          //Menu Bar
          JMenuBar mb = new JMenuBar();
          this.setJMenuBar(mb);
          //Table
          table = new JTable(model);
          this.add(table);
          JMenu fm = new JMenu("File");
          fm.setFont(arial20);
          mb.add(fm);
          //Menu Items          
          JMenuItem Add = new JMenuItem("Add Record");
          Add.setFont(arial20);
          Add.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
               public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) 
                    addw a = new addw();                    
          fm.add(Add);
          //Import from a file
          JMenuItem inp = new JMenuItem("Import Records");
          inp.setFont(arial20);
          inp.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
               public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) 
                    //Opens Import Window.
                    inportw i = new inportw();                    
          fm.add(inp);
          JMenuItem quit = new JMenuItem("Exit");
          quit.setFont(arial20);
          fm.add(quit);
          quit.addActionListener(this);
class inportw extends JFrame
          //*Add Window Properties and Settings
          public inportw ()
               this.setSize(new Dimension(400, 150));
               this.setTitle("Inport Records");
               this.setLayout(new FlowLayout ());
               this.setVisible(true);
               //Nmae
               JLabel error_note = new JLabel("Error Here - Need to make table final!?");
               error_note.setFont(arial20);
               this.add(error_note);
               //Add Button
               JButton binport = new JButton("Inport");
               binport.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
                    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) 
                         ArrayList data = new ArrayList();          
               this.add(binport);
     public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
          System.out.println("Application Exit");
          System.exit(0);
     public static void main(String[] args)
          basic b = new basic();
          The information from the atable needs to go into a .txt file with each row on a new line. It also needs to be in the inport/export window that is in a class on its own when someone clicks export.
A complete peace of code would be helpfull that would do this for me. Thankyou guys.

Answer 1

Rite then,
In answer to both post yes i have done my own homework if thats what you wont to call it.
And to the second post yes i have put in a File to export to. the code has not be pasted on my origanal post.
//Export Button - Export Window
               JButton bexport = new JButton("Export (BUAB)");
               bexport.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
                    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) 
                         System.out.println("Export Pressed ");
                         try
                             FileWriter file = new FileWriter("AddressData.txt");
                            BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(file);
                             out.write("AddressBook data File");
                            out.close();
                         catch (Exception ei)
                         System.err.println("Error: " + ei.getMessage());
               this.add(bexport);This is the export button,
I think the code for the table model should be something like this:
I wont to do something like this
model.getModel().getValueAt(0, 0);
Arrylist data = new arrylist();
try
                             FileWriter ffile = new FileWriter("AddressData.txt");
                            BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(file);
                             out.write(data);
                            out.close();
                         catch (Exception ei)
                         System.err.println("Error: " + ei.getMessage());
                             }          Im not 100% sure how to get the information from the model into the arrylist, though a loop.
If there is a section of a webpage that may help could someone please post it for me.
Unfortunatly for me Im visualy impaired and find some of this hard. I learn though looking at examples and creating my own programs that do something similar.
If no one wonts to help then that fine with me !
