How to save a .dat file to a certain directory on my desktop

I am writing Java code to generate .dat and .idx files, which I can do. The files are saved to my workspace folder which I set up as a default when I started Eclipse.

Now I want to save these files and only these files I create to another directory on my server. Is there code that can do this or do I have to change the settings in Eclipse to do this?

No you can definitely do it programmatically. When specifying the path use something like:

"/c/users/someperson/desktop/blah.dat"

Its a easy thing. Check below if this is what you want. Use

File file = new File("C:\\results\\results.txt");

C:\results\ is your outside directory.
