can you do a video on reading the CSV file?

[@maxodidily]

I have a tutorial on that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n6jZe2Vsebl-adk

[@Paul-ug6rs]

Thx Max, do you know how to delete specific data from csv file?

[@shreyshah8596]

Thank you for the wonderful explanation!! but have doubt, where to find the txt file when the app is running on android phone??

[@youngsolomon9768]

how do I add a specific file path

[@eastern815]

You are awesome👍

[@coryhobgood]

This helped me to create a .txt. But it's not quite a CSV file. Was looking to create a datatable and output that into a .csv file.

[@maxodidily]

Just change the file name to have .csv at the end.

@@maxodidily Hey dude, thank you for the tip. I am doing almost the same thing but I am using the user input from a WPF application I made. I store the user input in variables ( userID and telephone) and then insert those to the. CSV file. I don't how to explain it well but apart from only listing the input from the user, it takes "System.Windows.Controls.TextBox: 542384213894 " all of that. The input is the number and the previous thing is probably the textbox. Evidently, I want it to list only the user input. Do you have any idea what might be the cause of this? I implemented my own method but mostly followed your instructions.

Noice wann ..thanks for being a great audience

[@shreyanshparashar1152]

sir can you tell me how i can prevent special character in csv or how can i prevent csv injection

[@sjuesju]

What would happen if in any of the string you have a coma? For example "Mercy" is "Mer,cy"

[@maxodidily]

That would result in unwanted behaviour. If you think your data will need commas, you should use a different character or sequence of characters for your delimiter.

Hi! I write Cyrillic lines to the file. When I open it, I see the hieroglyphs. How can I change the encoding when saving?

[@Sajibkumarjoarder]

thank you

[@charysafflickstraker1278]

so are we using a console appplication or WFA ?

[@maxodidily]

This code can be used with either but in this tutorial we use a console application as it is quicker.

[@kishorkumar.s34]

This video was really helpful, but what if we need to add header to these values , how to achieve this.

[@maxodidily]

You could just use the first line of the file as header values and when you read from the file, just ignore the first line.

Congratulations on the great video lesson. Simple, objective and straightforward. Live to Visual Studio and C # God is Faithful. And the earth remains flat until further notice. Thank you very much.

[@mt03adventures]

if you don't close your stream writer it does not work for a .csv file. I mean for me it did not work just after i closed the file. Anyway ty for the video

[@maxodidily]

You should close the stream writer, I forgot to mention that.

[@ecerejo]

From what I understand you don't have to close when you use the keyword "using" like you did. When you use the keyword using it automatically calls Dispose and Dispose will automatically close the writer also. bit.ly/3bGe1M2

[@charlesamador3440]

What ecerejo said!! I added the "using" part, and the .csv file worked!!
