VB.NET input output...

[vidiware]

In VB 6 you could write somehting like:

 

Open xxx for input as #1....

 

can someone explain me in detail how you opens a textfile for input or output in VB.NET?

[a_jam_sandwich]

Dim MyFile As IO.StreamWriter
MyFile = New System.IO.StreamWriter("c:\test.txt", True) ' True for appending
MyFile.WriteLine("THIS IS A LINE OF TEXT") ' Write text to file
MyFile.WriteLine("THIS IS ANOTHER")
MyFile.Close() ' Close file

 

Hope this helps nice and easy

Add MyFile.Flush() before closing to make sure you dont loose any text that you want to write into the file.
