Thread: Sorting data from a file into textarea

Hi, i'm coding this simple childrens learning game and to summarise it consists of textfield where user inputs there name and then he/she gets to play this game where at the end you recieve a score. Using read/write methods i made the name and the score to appear on file and then it displays it on textarea. The problem is now i need to sort the scores in the file and display top 10 in the text area. I'm not sure how or where to begin

here is the read/write methods:

public void writeFile() {
		try {
			FileWriter write = new FileWriter("text.txt", true);
			PrintWriter text = new PrintWriter(write);
			text.println( name + " " + score);
			text.flush();
			write.close();
 
		} catch (IOException ioe)
		// writes name from textfield(username) and score from board class
		// into text document text.txt
		{
			ioe.printStackTrace();
		}
	}

try {
			FileReader fileStream = new FileReader("text.txt");
			area.read(fileStream, "text.txt");
			fileStream.close();
 
		} catch (FileNotFoundException e) 
		// gets data from text.txt and reads
		// it into textarea called area
		{
			System.out.println("File not found");
		} catch (IOException e)
		// this just basic highscores with limited
		// capabilities
		{
			System.out.println("IOException occurred");
		}
