1. Create a new file in ur destination folder2. Read the contents in source file and copy it to destination file3. Delete the source fileCheers

BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("C:\\SourceFolder\\data.txt"));

BufferedWriter bw = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("C:\\DestinationFolder\\data.txt"));

String str = null;

// Copy

while ((str = br.readLine()) != null) {

bw.write(str);

bw.newLine();

}

br.close();

bw.close();

//Delete

File f = new File("C:\\SourceFolder\\data.txt");

f.delete();

System.out.println("Moved Successfully!");

There is great feature called "Search Engine" :) http://www.java2s.com/Code/Java/File-Input-Output/CopyfilesusingJavaIOAPI.htm

Ahh, you asked about moving not copying. I'm confused by answer from astelaveesta :)Well, there is another great feature called "File.renameTo()"

Michael, Thanks for that info

File sourceFile = new File("C:\\SourceFolder\\data.txt");

File destinFile = new File("C:\\DestinFolder\\data.txt");

sourceFile.renameTo(destinFile);

Cheers
