                    for (int col = 0; col < table.getColumnCount(); col++) {
                        os.print(table.getColumnName(col));
                        os.print(": ");
                        os.println(table.getValueAt(row, col));

                e1.printStackTrace();
            }
        }
    }
});

Solution 1

You need to add a filter:

JFileChooser jf = new JFileChooser();
FileNameExtensionFilter filter = new FileNameExtensionFilter("TEXT FILES", "txt", "text");
jf.setFileFilter(filter);

Solution 2

Here some examples

fileChooser.addChoosableFileFilter(new FileNameExtensionFilter("Images", "jpg", "png", "gif", "bmp"));
fileChooser.addChoosableFileFilter(new FileNameExtensionFilter("*.pdf", "pdf"));
fileChooser.addChoosableFileFilter(new FileNameExtensionFilter("*.txt", "txt"));

Solution 3

You could do that by using FileFilter.

Create a Filefilter with the necessary conditions. Set this file filter to the JFileChooser, and launch it.
