been having some trouble finding the right way to do this. I have a GUI with text fields, check boxes, and combo boxes. I've managed to write these fields to a .dat file but I'm having trouble reading that file. Basically what I need done is to read one line and store it to a string. Then read the next line and store that to another string until I reach the end of the group. I'm not a complete beginner at Java, but I am self taught so a complete code example would very helpfully and really appreciated.

1`Files.readLines(File, Charset)`, see http://docs.guava-libraries.googlecode.com/git/javadoc/com/google/common/io/Files.html#readLines(java.io.File, java.nio.charset.Charset) – Nov 21 '13 at 17:48

BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(
new FileInputStream(
new File("C:/lol.txt"))));
Then use
br.readLine();

Does the .readline need to be imported by a specific package? My editor is giving me an error saying it can't find that method. – user3018594 Nov 21 '13 at 18:13
