Help With Text File

[lorena]

I have a windows application that writes to a .txt file.

I would like to give users the opportunity to view the text file while the application is running.

Is there a way to do this?

I have already set it up so it creates the file, writes to the file and closes the file and that all works fine. I just thought it would be nice to give users the option to view the file and save as or print during the use of the application instead of having to wait until they close the app.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Why not create a form with a textbox on it and a simple menu or toolbar to save and print, and use that to present the text to the user. Either that or launch notepad and have it open the text file.
