VB.NET Tutorial 43 - Saving Text Files (Visual Basic 2008/2010)

[@TDubKong]

thanks for the video man. spot on what I needed for extra credit on my project. i am going to go looking for the other part of my project that i dont have yet amongst your tutorials. if every one you do is this well done than I may yet pass this class.

[@TeachMeComputer]

@swehunter2000 The next tutorial is on openfiledialog and savefiledialog if that is what you mean, but do you want a tutorial on something different?

[@suupertramp]

how could you add lines to a file without deleting whats already there if it exists, like adding friends to a list or something?

[@ShwaySo]

Is it possible to write straight to the debug folder similarly to the way FromFile reads straight from the debug folder, or do you have to know the exact file pathway?

[@unknowdud3]

how to write to the same txt file from different text boxes? each thing i write in each text box i want it to be in a different line from each other.

[@ChrisPBacon2010]

Is there a way to make the program to auto-save itself every so often?

[@DoombrekerPlus]

I get an error: Access to path to path C:\Test is denied.

[@JACK019930]

@doombreker that seems like you either need to run vb as an administrator or just choose a different path to place it in

[@gurkhasnep]

Is there a way to add more text to the same file without overwriting it?

[@ayecapt]

you could use try catch to check the file exists? thanks..

[@GeekyCompz]

When I Do this code, it will read the text but then when it goes to save it says that another process is using the text document. Why? Please Help Me!

[@Zerolagg]

How do i do if i want to append the file if already exists?... Where does it save the file once the program is terminated?

[@tanteikhoe4393]

Once I save the file, the program cant open the file as the file not in C:\ and I also faced this problem (unauthorized access exception)
