Launch Notepad

[Giri Thava]

What API should I use to launch a notepad. Assume I want to launch a notepad that already exists(test.txt).

Thanks in advance.

Try AWT TextArea or Swing JTextArea

Try this..

try {
            Runtime.getRuntime().exec("notepad.exe " + file.txt);
            }
          catch(Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();        
            }
