Hi Norman, ".." or double dots usually represent 1 directory up. For example, if I have a class file
/tmp/here/myclass.class and I have a text file /tmp/mytextfile.txt I can access the text file using the path "../mytextfile.txt" If my text file happens to be inside another folder like this /tmp/anotherfolder/mytextfile.txt I can access it using the path "../anotherfolder/mytextfile.txt" * just replace the slash with a backslash (or double backslash) if you're using Windows. You can start by playing around the location of the file by putting it one directory up, then 2 directories up and then placing it inside different folders. --- Randell http://randell.ph/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/javaprogrammingwithpassion?hl=en -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
