I'm using Java Swing (GUI) and I want to add a button to my project for opening files .

I don't like the JFileChooser since it opens a small window for browsing through the files

of the directories . Can I use something else , instead of the JFileChooser under Java Swing ?

I've tried to use elements of SWT but it didn't work , meaning is the use of the button object and then use it inside the Jframe , but that failed , so I guess SWT and Swing don't mix together?

Here is the example of Java Swing with JFileChooser and I'm looking for something like this to put in my JFrame.
