Trouble with buffered Reader

[hennie louw]

Hi I am trying to read data from a file using a BufferdReader object and then compare it to a String that is determent by args[1] , if it matches i add the data to vector A and if not to vector B , then i write all data in the two vectors to files , this all works nicely and then new file that was not suppose to have the data specivied by args[1] doesn't have any data of it...
so this all works fine, but when is delete the file all data was read from and rename the new file to this file it says it again found that data that i removed, so i am thinking that because it is a BufferedReader the buffers are not cleared , but how can i clear the buffers of a BufferedReader, there is no method called flush() like for a bufferedWriter, does java clear the buffers itself ???
please help here is the read code
public void ReadFile(BufferedReader in, String testText) {
Vector dataBlock = new Vector();
boolean record = false;
String data;
String openBlock = new String("ITEM");
String closeBlock = new String("}");
try {
while ((data = in.readLine()) != null) {
if (openBlock.equalsIgnoreCase(data)) {
record = true;
}
while (record == true) {
data = in.readLine();
dataBlock.addElement(data);
if (closeBlock.equalsIgnoreCase(data)) {
record = false;
this.formatArray(dataBlock, testText);
}
}
}
} catch (IOException e ) {}
}
