Hi, You cannot use the regular java IO for res/raw. folder. only if you are using /sd/card you can use regular java.io
here is some code that might help you FileInputStream fin = context.openFileInput("sitestore"); InputStreamReader br = new InputStreamReader(fin); String readString = ""; int i; while((i = br.read()) != -1){ inputBuffer = (char)i; readString = readString + inputBuffer; } FileOutputStream fOut = context.openFileOutput("sitestore", context.MODE_WORLD_READABLE); OutputStreamWriter bw = new OutputStreamWriter(fOut); write the code for writting to file here...........
