You can read a file anywhere on your computer, here is an example using Java BufferedReader

import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.IOException;

public class ReadFileExample1 {

  private static final String FILENAME = "E:\\test\\filename.txt";

    public static void main(String[] args) {

	BufferedReader br = null;
	FileReader fr = null;

	try {
		//br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(FILENAME));
		fr = new FileReader(FILENAME);
		br = new BufferedReader(fr);

		String sCurrentLine;

		while ((sCurrentLine = br.readLine()) != null) {
			System.out.println(sCurrentLine);
		}

	} catch (IOException e) {
		e.printStackTrace();
	} finally {
      try {
		  if (br != null) br.close();
		  if (fr != null) fr.close();
	  } catch (IOException ex) {
		  ex.printStackTrace();
	  }
