I understand that RandomAccessFile may read and write to a file, but how would I edit a string within that file. I am currently working on a GUI and I would like to edit certain features of the data file as well as delete features so that it can change the data read in by the JList.

Could anyone help?

A long, long, long time ago (okay, it was only 2 years ago) I used a RandomAccessFile as a low-level database. It was based on the article at JavaWorld which can be found at http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-01-1999/jw-01-step.html

It sounds like you will need to use this for your application. You can download the source code at the bottom of the page.

Hope this helps.

Adam
