Processing system files

Hi,I want to process file that is located in system files. My code takes this file as a parameter, but how can I process the file directly since it locates in different drive -- not in the same directory where I have my code.

# 1

you can as long as you have the relative or absolute path to the file and permissions to access the file for the user that is running the program

But if I assumed that the bath is :C:\folder1\subfolder\fileWhen I pass this path I recieve error that says:Invalid escape, you should use(\t, \n,..)

Thats becouse character '\' is used as the scape character.

you should either change the \ chars to / chars. or scape all \ chars by adding \ caracter before each of them.

so the valid java string representing the path should look like

C:\\folder1\\subfolder\\file

C:/folder1/subfolder/file

Thanks, I was thinking of doing something like this.
