Hi,
I want to have a program that inputs a text file and on that text file there will be one name per line:
i. e.
James White
Alex Black
Michael Smith
etc. etc.
Then I want the program to read it line by line and assign each one a number. I cannot due that. How can i input the .txt file and have Java read it line by line, assigning each name a number?

Should bring up loads of samples. By the way, you should read the IO tutorials.

thanks for your help. i have two other questions though.
1. How can I implement a file chooser. You know how on windows, on most apps, there is the option of browse and it brings up a file chooser. how can I do that?
2. How can i make it so that i can attach my file with its on ending, i.e. .xzy. I want to be able to save my file with an ending, like .xyz, so that it can be reopened later by my application.
