I can't delete my file

[smith32]

File tempFile = new File(fw.getAbsolutePath() + ".tmp");
        BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(fw));
     	PrintWriter p = new PrintWriter(new FileWriter(tempFile));
     	
		   String serData=(String)loadService().elementAt(i);
		   StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(serData, ":");
		   String code=st.nextToken();
		   String name=st.nextToken();
			 if (!name.trim().equals(deleteString)) {

          		p.println(st);
         		 p.flush();
        		}
      
      		p.close();
      		br.close();
      		
		if (!fw.delete()) {
			
        System.out.println("Could not delete file");
        return;
      }
      
      //Rename the new file to the filename the original file had.
      if (!tempFile.renameTo(fw)){
      	
        System.out.println("Could not rename file");
      
   		 }

Thank u for helping me bro.

Well take this change:

[B]//try {
           // FileWriter f = new FileWriter("test.txt");
           // PrintWriter p = new PrintWriter(f, true);[/B]

            pw.write(programme.printInfo());
            System.out.println("SUCCESS WRITING FILE");
            pw.close();

          [B]  /*} catch (IOException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
            }*/[/B]

hope it helps.
