this is really wierd. why can't i open java files? the only way i could open them is by opening them in notepad and then copy and paste the code into blue J. and then compile it. even the files i save on my own computer that i made i can't open them unless i open Blue J and then open my own files. |

You might have to do that again but click on browse or something like that and use file explorer to find the .exe of BlueJ... |

k i can do that now but how can i make it permananently always open in Blue J because as soon as i close it i would have to repeat the steps by going to browse and selecting Blue J. |

There should be a checkbox on the dialog where you click browse that says "always use this program" or something to that effect and there should be a check there... |

thanks that resolves the issue with opening my own files. although i still can't open files that others made. for example if u go to java submissions and try to open tic tac toe. it only opens as a text file and i have to copy and paste the code into BlueJ. even if i say open in BlueJ it will open a previous program i made or a blank program. |

NO!!!  once u double click on the files to open they open BlueJ but the program isn't there! its the previous program that was used last that shows up!!! the only way i could open my previously made files is if i open BlueJ and then open my files inside. please help me fix this problem! |
