Hi , 

I am new to using java swing , i need help 

To create a tagger so that i once open a text file in teh editor i
have
created using Java Swing 

i can Tag any word in the text file by selecting that word, change
color of the word when i tag it
then can save this tagged file to the flat file system and close it 
Next time when i open the same file I should see tagged word in color.

Many thanks for an early reply to this query

Best regards

Rajeev


for eg : if the sample Input file is 

i looked at teh big wolf coming my way, i got thrilled 

then the sample output file (when user opens the above file next time)

i looked at <green>teh </green> big wolf coming my way, i got
<red>thrilled</red>

create tag using java swing

could be a starting point.

Why are you not using HTML syntax <font ...> </font> instead, then
you could use javax.swing.JEdtiorPane with setContentType("text/html");

HTH,
