import java.io.*;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class Sstudent
{

private String studentName;
private String studentBirthday;
private String studentGPA;
private String studentAddress;

public Sstudent()
{
}
public Sstudent(String nName, String nBirthday, String nGPA, String nAddress)
{
this.studentName = nName;
this.studentBirthday= nBirthday;
this.studentGPA = nGPA;
this.studentAddress= nAddress;
}

public void setStudentName(String newStudentName)
{
studentName = newStudentName;
}

public void setStudentBirthday(String newStudentBirthday)
{
studentBirthday = newStudentBirthday;
}

public void setStudentGpa(String newStudentGPA)
{
studentGPA = newStudentGPA;
}

public void setStudentAddress(String newStudentAddress)
{
studentAddress = newStudentAddress;
}



public String getStudentName()
{
return studentName;
}

public String getStudentBirthday()
{
return studentBirthday;
}

public String getStudentGPA()
{
return studentGPA;
}

public String getStudentAddress()
{
return studentAddress;
}


public static void main(String[] args)
{

try{
BufferedWriter br = new BufferedWriter(
new FileWriter("C:\\Users\\User\\Desktop\\Project\\inp ut.txt"));


Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);


Sstudent student=new Sstudent();
System.out.println("Enter student details\n");



System.out.println("\nEnter student name");
student.setStudentName(input.nextLine(studentName) );


System.out.println("\nEnter student Birth Day");
student.setStudentBirthday(input.next());

System.out.println("\nEnter student GPA");
student.setStudentGpa(input.next());

System.out.println("\nEnter student Address");
student.setStudentAddress(input.next());


br.close();


}catch(Exception e){
System.out.println("Error!");
}

}
}

Please edit your post and wrap your code with code tags:
[code=java]
YOUR CODE HERE
[/code]
to get highlighting and preserve formatting.

Please explain what your problems are. What does the program do when it is compiled and executed? If there are error messages, copy the full text and paste it here.

You might try to actually use br before posting your errors.

You must call some methods of the BufferedWriter class that will write to the file. Look at the API doc for the BufferedWriter class to see what method(s) to use.
