Read specific line

Dear All,

I have a one input file following way:

PATH: Top/Science/Earth Sciences/Atmospheric Chemistry

RAW: Atmospheric Chemistry

WSDA: Atmospheric() chemistry(70995,WordNet_2.1:n#06005460)

PATH: Top/Science/Earth Sciences/Atmospheric Chemistry/Publication

RAW: publication

WSDA: publication(41740,WordNet_2.1:n#01087739)

PATH: Top/Science/Earth Sciences/Atmospheric Chemistry/Modeling

RAW: Modeling

WSDA: Modeling(42261,WordNet_2.1:n#00885978)

I want to read a specific line RAW and store each line in the array list. Could you please give me some suggestions. How to read specific line . I know how to read file and line but I do not know the specific line. .

Thanks a lots .

What's your problem - reading the file or finding RAW in the String?

I'm not sure I get the question. I'd say keep reading lines from the beginning of the file until you've read the line you want, and you're done. What's the problem with this approach? :-)

That's what happens when I type with my glasses off.

Is it only me not getting the typo? I thought I used to be good at spotting typos :-/

You had to be quick to see it - it only existed for about 5 seconds.

what I wrote you before , It was my file structure of text file.

My problem is how can I store the token from perticular line .

suppose my perticular line is RAW

i want to store the token following:

ArrayList ar =new ArrayList()

ar.add(Atmospheric Chemistry)

ar.add(publication)

ar.add(modelling)

But I am facing problem to read a specific line like RAW: Atomospheric Chemistry .

I want to ignore line PATH and WASD etc. if you know it please let me know.

thanks ..

Well, the simple approach is to test the lines with the startsWith method of String, then use the substring method to chop off the first 5 characters.
