here is some parse file code, you will have to modify it for your variable
names and such but in short it creates a URL, opens a URL stream, then
assigns that stream to the BufferedReader class. Good Luck.

Some Notes: The String variable passed to this method "fileName" holds the
URL for Anne's data file. You might want to hard code this in. I took out
all the references to my GUI class, they were primarily sending stuff to
the screen.
