How to read a text file using Java

Guys,
Good day!
Please help me how to read a text file using Java and create/convert that text file into XML.
Thanks and God Bless.
Regards,
I-Talk

     public void fileRead(){
             File aFile =new File("myFile.txt");
         BufferedReader input = null;
         try {
           input = new BufferedReader( new FileReader(aFile) );
           String line = null;
           while (( line = input.readLine()) != null){
         catch (FileNotFoundException ex) {
           ex.printStackTrace();
         catch (IOException ex){
           ex.printStackTrace();
     }This code is to read a text file. But there is no such thing that will convert your text file to xml file. You have to have a defined XML format. Then you can read your data from text files and insert them inside your xml text. Or you may like to read xml tags from text files and insert your own data. The file format of .txt and .xml is far too different.

How to format a excel file use java.

hi,

hi,
everyone, i meet a problem.i want to write a excel
el file use java.i can use .csv input the date to
excel.but i want to know how to format it.
thanks
JoveIf I understand your question correctly you need to know the format of a .csv file for use in an Excel spreadsheet. A .csv file is a comma-delimited file so all that you need to do is write your data elements to the file with commas in between them. Having done something similar in the past, let me warn you that when Excel is reading your file, it uses some characters other than commas as field delimiters. for example, / : and ; are treated as commas. To defeat this, you will need to surround fields containing those characters in double quotes.
Hope that helps

Dear All,
There are three ways for achiving excel operations using java including excel to xml etc.
1. There is a very effective tool available for this operation is "jexcel". You can find it at http://www.andykhan.com/jexcelapi/index.html
2. Jakarta site has provided a very good tool by name jakarta poifs. one can find at jakarta site.
3. One can develop a very effective tool by combining these above tools togather.
The operations that can be performed are read, write, convert etc for excel. The major attraction of Jexcel is excel to xml conversion.

How to read the excel file using webdynpro abap?

Hi,
how to read and modify excel file using webdynpro abap?
Regards,
Pavani

For reading excel file follow the steps :
1. Use a File upload UI element and bind it with xstring.
2. Now your excel will be uploaded and stored in Xstring.
3. Convert Xstring to String data using FM 'HR_KR_XSTRING_TO_STRING'.
4. Now split the string at new line so as to make an internal table .
Ex . SPLIT l_string AT cl_abap_char_utilities=>newline INTO TABLE it_table.
here it_table is type table of string.
5.now loop at the internal table and separate the content of this table separated by tab.
Ex. SPLIT wa_table AT cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab INTO TABLE it_new.
it_new type string_table.
6. For more info , refer this thread :
