                                  Hi friends, in this article I will explain about Create, Read, Write, Copy, Move and Delete a Text File or notepad file using C# and VB.NET.

                                 For the Create, Read, Write, Copy, Move and Delete a Text File or notepad file using C# and VB.NET  we have use the namespace System.IO.Because the above file methods included in System.IO namespace.

Create a Text file:

   We can create a text file using the File.CreateText method. The below will create the text file.

VB.NET Code:

Imports System.IO Imports System.Text Public Class Form2     Private Sub Form2_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load         Dim swriter As StreamWriter         swriter = File.CreateText("c:\\temp\roja.txt")         swriter.WriteLine("hi welcome to aspdotnet-roja.blogspot.com")         swriter.Close()     End Sub End Class

C# Code:

using Microsoft.VisualBasic; using System; using System.Collections; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Data; using System.Diagnostics; using System.IO; using System.Text; Public Class Form2 {      private void Form2_Load(System.Object sender, System.EventArgs e)      {           StreamWriter swriter = null;           swriter = File.CreateText("c:\\temp\roja.txt");           swriter.WriteLine("hi welcome to aspdotnet-roja.blogspot.com");           swriter.Close();      }     Public Form2()      {           Load += Form2_Load;      } }
