Help me to read a txt file

[leila]

I am new in java. I want to read a simple text file
I used this code:

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOExcep tion;
import java.io.RandomA ccessFile;
import java.util.Date;
public class ForMe {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.prin tln( "Testing File name-getting methods." );
System.out
.println(
"There must exist a TEST file called e:\\text.txt" );

// set up handle to file name.
File f = new File( "E:\\text.t xt" );

// does the file exist
if ( f.exists() )
{
System.out.prin tln( "file exists" );
}
else
System.out.prin tln("not exist");

}
I create a file named text.txt in E:
but it said not exist
I do not know why?!

Hi,

I used the same code whatever you have.

And I got the following output.

Testing File name-getting methods.
There must exist a TEST file called e:\text.txt
file exists

Hi Velmurugan,

If I used single back slash instead of double back slash it is showing an message

not exist
