Here is how that looks: RandomAccessilile file = new RandomAccessFile ("c: \ data \ file.txt", "rw"); Notice the second input parameter to the constructor: "rw". This is the mode you want to open file in. "rw" means read / write mode. The different access modes supported by the Java RandomAccessFile is covered in the next section. Access Modes The Java RandomAccessFile supports the following access modes: Mode Description r Read mode. Calling write methods will result in an IOException. Iw Read and write mode. rwd Read and write mode - synchronously. All updates to file content is written to the disk synchronously. Read and write mode - synchronously. All updates to file content or meta data is written to the disk synchronously. Seeking in a RandomAccessFile To read or write at a specific location in
