You cannot write to note pad because notepad is an editor not a file. You need to write to a file. If you want to read that file using notepad then the file shoudend with .txt :
File file = new File("C:/path/fileName.txt");I usually use BufferedWriter:
File file = new File("C:/path/fileName.txt");
BufferedWriter wr = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(file));
wr.write("Sometxt");
wr.newLine();
...
...
wr.close();You will need to put the above inside a try - catch block.
Notepad might have an interface allowing you to insert text into its editor area from another process, but I don't know if it does and to be honest I doubt it.
It's a primitive application (by design, it's designed to be light weight and simple) after all.

Text from Java doc
Robot class : This class is used to generate native system input events for the purposes of test automation, self-running demos, and other applications where control of the mouse and keyboard is needed. The primary purpose of Robot is to facilitate automated testing of Java platform implementations.

try{
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("notepad");
Robot robot = new Robot();
robot.delay(100);
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_A);
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_B);
robot.keyPress(KeyEvent.VK_C);

what code are you using?
Jemz -
You can use PrintWriter's print(String) method in order to make sure your text ends up aligned properly. Since all that will be printed is the String that you supply, you can output whatever you want, followed by spaces, other text, whatever, and then when you want to go to the next line simply print the String "\n". Alternatively you could call PrintWriter's println method once, printing out everything that you want to be on the current line, and it will skip to the next line for you.
Of course, everything I said above also applies to the method JavaAddict showed you, except the class's methods he showed you are obviously different. Show us some code.
i use the br.write(String format("%-10",name);..this my code in writing...
but when i look in my file it is not properly align..help me please.
Is this correct?
String format("%-10",name)
Try to use System.out.println() and try to get the proper alignment and then when you are satisfied save it to the file
Try to read the API of the classes you are using in order to find what other methods you might use
