i have a aspx form. I fill in my particulars into the fields in this form and click submit. Then it automatically saves a copy of this form with all the inputs intact in a text file. The form also has a table. What are the codes to save a copy of this aspx file as a text file?

What exactly are you trying to do? Are you trying to save the fields in the textboxes to a text file? If so, you need to make an IO object, open a file and write the results:

'add this to the top of your project
Imports System.IO
'----

'add this function and call it from your button_click event:
Private Function SaveResults() As Boolean
       Try
           Dim myFile As FileInfo
           Dim myPath As String = "Enter_your_file_save_path_here.txt"

           'delete the file if it is already there:
           myFile = New FileInfo(myPath)
           If myFile.Exists Then
               myFile.Delete()
           End If

           Dim mySW As New StreamWriter(myPath)

           mySW.WriteLine("This is the start of the results")
           mySW.WriteLine("VALUE 1: " + textbox1.text)
           mySW.WriteLine("VALUE 2: " + textbox2.text)
           '...
           mySW.WriteLine("This is the end of the results")
           mySW.Close()
           myFile = Nothing
           Return True
       Catch ex As Exception
           If Trace.IsEnabled Then Trace.Write("Error saving Results", ex.ToString())
           Return False
       End Try
   End Function

 

Also note -- If you are running this from an ASPX page, then you will have to have a writeable directory on your server, unless you impersonate a valid, authorized user.

 

Good luck!
