Save as dialog box question

[Antigoni Splash]

I have a simple save dialog box as follows:

   int returnVal = fc.showSaveDialog(GuiKiprosJob1.this);
			
			if (returnVal == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) 
			{
				File file = fc.getSelectedFile();
				File fileChosen = file.getAbsoluteFile(); 
				

			} 

One question!
I want when the save dialog opens a default filename to appear in the File Name field for example "Hello.txt".
Anyone knows how to do it?

javax.swing.JFileChooser
You retrieve the selected file using getSelectedFile(). I'll leave it to you to find the method that sets the selected file

I' ve tried that beforing posting but i didn't have success i don't know if i am using the command in a wrong way...

I am using the following command:

JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser();
fc.setSelectedFile(new File("Hello.txt"));

That works just fine for me. What is not working with that code?

[Maneesh Godbole]

The file needs to exist in the currently displayed location to be selected

[Rob Spoor]

No it doesn't. How else could you save to new files?

[Antigoni Splash]

The file doesn't have to exist i was just placing the command in a wrong place!
Thanks!
