Take a look at the methods of the java.util.File class to handle folders and files. Do a search of all files inside of all folders and subfolders - for each file you'll have to open it into a stream to be processed, then close and move to the next.

But you know enough to beg for someone to do your work for you?

There are plenty of code listings available as a result of a search on Google or other search engine, if all you're interested in is copying or passing someone else's work off as your own.
