HI Neha,

Use following code snippet, i hope it will work for you.

String fileFilterPath=getProjectPath();
FileDialog fileDialog = new FileDialog(getShell(), SWT.SINGLE);
fileDialog.setFilterPath(fileFilterPath);
fileDialog.setFilterExtensions(new String[]{"*.csv","*.tsv"});
String firstFile = fileDialog.open();

if(firstFile != null) {
fileFilterPath = fileDialog.getFilterPath();
String[] selectedFiles = fileDialog.getFileNames();
String fileName=null;
if(selectedFiles.length>0){
fileName=selectedFiles[0];
}
csvFile.setText(fileFilterPath+"\\"+fileName.toString());
}

Thanks,
Prakash
