Text file not being found when running JAR file

801931Dec 23 2008 — edited Dec 26 2008

Hi.
I have a project which reads from a .txt file. When I run it from Netbeans it works fine but when I JAR the project (and the text file is within the JAR file because when I extracted it, it was there) it complains that it doesn't the text file. On the other hand, when I place the text file in the same folder as the JAR file resides, then the JAR files works... but I don't want this. I want it to run from the JAR file only.
Any help?
Thanks and regards,
Krt_Malta
