Saving to file. Help needed

I'm designing an electrionic organiser, it only does one year and for each month the user can enter appiontments (which is just a simple text area the user enters text to).
I have prity much everything finshed but I don't know how I should store the users data. What way should I save the data to file for each day of each month. So it is easily loaded again.
Please Help

I was given this code to use is this what you where talking about?
/* An object of this class enables a user to read and/or write whole objects from/to a given file:
          - read from the set file (if the file is found - otherwise a new default object is created)
          - write a given object to the set file
      At present, this class reads objects of type 'myObjectClass' (and writes objects of any type). 
      To serialize other classes, only six lines in the readObjectFromFile method need to be edited:
             - lines 38, 40, 47, 52, 57 and 62.
      The typical usage of this class involves:
                - creating an instance of simpleSerializer, passing in the file object
                - reading and/or writing objects:
                         simpleSerializer S = new simpleSerializer (new File("myData.dat"));
                         S.readObjectFromFile();
                         S.writeObjectToFile(myObject);
import java.io.*;
public class simpleSerializer
     public File theFile;  // the set file for reading and writing
     public simpleSerializer(File f)
          theFile = f;
     } // constructor
     /* The following method can be edited to read objects of your class (myObjectClass, here) */
     /* To read other classes, replace the six references to myObjectClass                  */
     public myObjectClass readObjectFromFile()
          myObjectClass d;
          if ((theFile!=null) && theFile.exists())
               try
                    ObjectInputStream ois = new ObjectInputStream( new FileInputStream(theFile));
                    d = (myObjectClass) ois.readObject();
                    ois.close();
               catch (IOException e) 
               { /* handle problem with fault in reading the file */     
                    d = new myObjectClass();
                    System.out.println("** IO Exception when reading file");
               catch (ClassNotFoundException cnfe) 
               { /* handle problem with fault in reading the file */ 
                    d = new myObjectClass();
                    System.out.println("** Class not found when reading file");
          else // file didn't exist - construct a new default myObjectClass using constructor
               d = new myObjectClass();
          return d;
     } // readObjectFromFile
     public void writeObjectToFile(Object d)
          try

               oos.close();

  • Burning full resolution jpg files help needed

    Hi there, I am relatively new to Aperture but I have been using iPhoto for years.  I can't seem to find a way to burn photos to my optical drive.  I need them full resolution for printing purposes.  Any help would be most appreciated.  Thanks

    how do I find that window?  *did I just say window?*
    When you export a photo with "File > Export > Version", a File Chooser dialog will open. Set the "Export Preset" pop up to "Edit". That lets you edit the settings for the different JPEG and TIFF export settings:

  • Cs4 Mac : linking to open external .app files, help needed!

    I have completed a CDROM for pc users for a client.
    The CDROM contains 15 quizzes in exe format.
    A 'portal' file links to each of these quizzes, so the user returns, having opened and completed the (.exe) quiz file, to the portal and takes another quiz.
    the code to open these 15 quiz files
    on(release){
    fscommand("exec","openexe15a.bat")
    This opens the bat file, which opens the exe
    ----- This works fine
    However, my client wants a mac version,
    I cant find a way to link to the macintosh projector file within the portal file.
    fscomand doesnt work, geturl doesnt work.. any help really would be appreciated.

    I don’t know how .Mac Backup works, so all I can say is which are the files & folders you need to restore from the backup (assuming you did actually back up them, that is).
    Mail stores most preferences and all account settings in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist (except the passwords, which are stored in the keychain). Everything else, including all your messages and mailboxes, is stored in ~/Library/Mail/.
    Similarly, Address Book (whose data you should back up as well) stores the settings in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.plist and the data in ~/Library/Application Support/AddresBook/.
    Other applications store preferences and data in other places. You may want to ask in the appropriate forums for more information on those.
    You may also want to read this:
    How to back up and restore your important Mac OS X 10.4 files
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder, i.e. ~/Library is the Library folder within the user's home folder.

  • .MTS Audio Files help needed

    I'm having a little trouble with editing.
    The footage I am editing are .MTS files. Both the audio and video.
    The video is playing fine (well, as best it can for my rubbish uni computers) but I am having trouble hearing the audio - and I'm getting lots of conforming errors.
    I read here that CS4 doesn't support .MTS audio files. If that's the case then why can I hear some of them and not the others?
    Should I be converting the audio into another format before editing? If so, then what's the best format to convert to, and how can I do it in a way that I don't have to strip the audio from the video (I want to keep them perfectly synced)
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Nath

    Hi Bill,
    Thanks for your reply, that's an interesting article. The files I am editing are stored on an external hard drive - I tried deleting a few files on there to make some room (whilst I was in the editing suite) and it wouldn't let me delete them because it said I didn't have administrator permission - despite this being my own hard drive. Could that be causing a problem with conforming? Should I copy the files accross onto the internal drive? The scratch disks are set to the local D drive.
    Nath
    Ps: I've just downloaded a program which is converting the .MTS files into .MOV. I don't really want to do this as this will probably loose quality - but I'm trying everything! What would be the optimum file type to convert to?

  • Password protected Files help needed Urgent

    I have a close family friend who's husband has just passed away, I’ve been helping her gain access to her husband’s laptop ect, he was the accountant for the family business, He used Star office version 8, the problem we have is many of his files are password protected.
    I have 2 questions
    1) How many attempts can the wife have to try and guess the password before she's locked out of the file?
    2) Is there any way to hack/bypass these passwords? (3rd party software, a company ect ect)
    I would really appreciate your help as the family's bank manager is visiting on Wednesday to go over the health of the business and many of these important financial files are locked.

  • Downloading a file help needed - Urgent

    Can anyone let me know how do i download a file that resides in database(BLOB format) in different box(server) to the local client's machine without prompting for any of the download dialog box using java. Also after downloading the correct application should be launched to view the downloaded file.
    thanks in advance

    Hi kev,
    Even I have done the same thing using servlets. But, My question is,
    When i click the download button from my application. The file should be downloaded to a pre-defined directory in clients machine and then the approperiate application should be launched to view the file.All this operation should take place just at the click of download button. Is this possible?.
    thanks
    chandru
    I've done this using a servlet. Assuming that the
    user's browser has the correct plugin available then
    you can call res.setContentType() and set the
    mime-type of the file, then you can call
    res.getOutputStream and stream the value from the
    database (using the relevent getXxxStream method of
    the BLOB) directly to the output. If for example your
    content type is application/ms-word, then the word
    plugin will be loaded and the file will be displayed.
    If your problem is with Database access and not with
    the display of the file, you'll have to let us know.
    Hope this helps

  • Manifest file: Help needed

    Hi everyone,
    We have a java app that includes in its install package some JRE components.
    We use to put these JREs under jre a subdirectory of the App main DIR at this point everything works fine and the manifest file looks like:
    Manifest-Version: 1.0
    Main-Class: mycompany.DIR1.MAINCLASSNAME
    Class-Path: .\jre\lib\jh.jar
    Created-By: 1.2.2 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
    The problem with this approach is when you install more than one copy you will duplicate also the JRE components (some 15 Megs).
    To avoid these duplications we decided to put the JREs in a common directory such as <WINDIR> (WINNT / Windows)
    to do so the manifest file has to be updated to reflect the jh.jar path.
    I tried a hard coded path: Class-Path: e:\WINNT\jre\lib\jh.jar and got this error:
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: mycompany/DIR1/MAINCLASSNAME
    by removing the class-path line I got the following error:
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/help/HelpSetException at mycompany.DIR1.MAINCLASSNAME.main(MAINCLASSNAME.java:30)
    Please help,
    any idea or suggestions are appreciated.
    Thanks,
    dobject.

    You could try a CLASSPATH along the lines of e:\WINNT\jre\lib\jh.jar;.
    Note, though, that you're throwing a lot of portability away.

  • Saving With iDVD Helps Crashes

    I have noticed that if I don't save my project before I burn the software will crash. Saving your file helps..possibly saving a few times so that you won't have to start over again. Also anytime you make a text change or background image you should save as well.

    Hi willMAC06:
    Welcome to discussions!
    I don't know if the saving actually stops the software from crashing-but it certainly helps in case it does crash!

  • Help with add cover art by saving a file as preview.jpg

    I need help. Im new to mac and have all my movie files on my external drive. I found out how to make an alias folder and it works great in Front Row. But when I look at the movie in Front Row. All I see is a blue folder. I read another post stating that it can be done and this is what I got,
    Front Row in Leopard supports playing VIDEO_TS folders. You can also add cover art by saving a file as preview.jpg in the parent directory. The folder structure would be like the following.
    /Users/fred/Movies/The Day the Earth Stood Still/VIDEO_TS/
    /Users/fred/Movies/The Day the Earth Stood Still/preview.jpg
    But how do I save it this way? Thanks guys and girls!

    !!! But how do I save it this way? Thanks guys and girls!
    That other post looks like one I wrote. I am note sure what you are stuck on, except perhaps you are not using VIDEO_TS folders.
    The normal location for Front Row to look for movies is /Users/yourname/Movies in that movies folder you can put either movie files, or folders containing movie files, or aliases to folders containing movie files (which might via the alias be on another hard drive).
    If you are using video files e.g. an AVI, or MPG, or MOV then these normally should be added in to iTunes and Front Row can access them via the iTunes library. iTunes will then let you set a 'poster' frame for the movie.
    If the movie is a full VIDEO_TS (i.e. a copy of a DVD) then you cannot add these to iTunes and you cannot set a poster frame. Therefore Front Row which in Leopard now supports playing VIDEO_TS folders has provided another mechanism to provide a poster for each VIDEO_TS movie, which is the previously mentioned preview.jpg file.
    This literally is just a standard JPG file, I get most of mine from Amazon.com to match the DVD covers, but some people prefer using movie posters rather than DVD covers, and in that case you could try getting a suitable JPG from http://www.impawards.com/
    So, in /Users/yourname/Movies you would either create a folder for each movie (VIDEO_TS) like the following
    /Users/yourname/Movies/The Day the Earth Stood Still/
    /Users/yourname/Movies/Soylent Green/
    /Users/yourname/Movies/Forbidden Planet/
    or you would put an alias in Movies to a folder on another drive containing individual folders for each movie, I will use italics to represent an alias
    /Users/yourname/Movies/MovieDrive/
    MovieDrive would then contain folders for each movie
    /MovieDrive/The Day the Earth Stood Still/
    /MovieDrive/Soylent Green/
    /MovieDrive/Forbidden Planet/
    Each movie folder e.g. "The Day the Earth Stood Still" would contain firstly a JPG file called "preview.jpg" which would be your poster or DVD cover image, and also the VIDEO_TS folder which is a copy of the DVD.
    /MovieDrive/The Day the Earth Stood Still/preview.jpg
    /MovieDrive/The Day the Earth Stood Still/VIDEO_TS/
    /MovieDrive/Soylent Green/preview.jpg
    /MovieDrive/Soylent Green/VIDEO_TS/
    /MovieDrive/Forbidden Planet/preview.jpg
    /MovieDrive/Forbidden Planet/VIDEO_TS/
    Note: VIDEO_TS is the standard folder name used on DVDs and you have to keep that name so that Front Row know it is from a DVD and therefore how to play it, however in order to let Front Row list them under individual names you put the VIDEO_TS folder inside a folder which would be the Movie name, as shown above.
    In Front Row you would select "Movies" this lists the contents of
    /Users/yourname/Movies
    If you have put an alias in Movies it would list this as a folder which in Front Row you would select. Front Row would then list all the movie folders you have created and it would automatically see the preview.jpg files and VIDEO_TS folders in each movie folder you have created. Front Row would then know to display as a poster the preview.jpg when you highlight each movie folder.

  • Help needed urgently! Accidentally deleted Excel sheet, then saved

    The back-story:  I was working with a spreadsheet in Microsoft Excel 2007, and I had it saved as a 97-03 document (Compatibility Mode). When I saved it, it said "minor loss of fidelity" and that some cell styles would need to be changed. It has been saying this every time I save the document for quite a file. I always just say "OK." This time, I decided I should try to figure out which cells it is referring to. It said there were 11 such cells, but didn't bother to tell me which ones. So I saved a second copy of the file, as "filename exp.xls," to experiment. Only, here's the problem:  When I saved this second copy, it gave me the "loss of fidelity" warning, and I clicked Cancel, not realizing this would prevent the second copy from saving. Now, I deleted one of the sheets in my workbook, and I saved the file. Turned out that sheet was the one with the errors, because it didn't give me the warning that time. But it also turned out that the sheet I had deleted (which contained a lot of information!) was now gone, because the back-up hadn't saved as I had intended it to.
    The process:  I did a System Restore to about six hours ago, to before I had made this deadly mistake, hoping it would revert my workbook and resolve the problem. Unfortunately, it looks like System Restore (although it was successful) doesn't revert any of your files to their older versions.
    The question:  Is there any way I can get this sheet back? I have backed up onto a flash drive everything that I have modified on my computer between the System Restore time and now. I am willing to do anything it takes to get the old version of my workbook back. There must be some back-up copy that MS Office has saved, in the cache or whatnot ... Is there any hope for me to revive all my hard work?
    I now know that in the future I will be even more extra careful to back up all my documents as frequently as possible ... but for now, I just want this one back! please help ...

    Unfortunately, I was never able to recover the document. It appears that any sheet you delete in Excel is permanently gone. The only solution is to make sure you back-up your files constantly, using a service like Mozy or Dropbox or Carbonite, or manually ... so that you have it saved somewhere else when you lose your work. =\
