[Pega]

i am an absolute beginner at this language (im doin it for college course) basically ive got a slight problem, what im trying to do is merge the text files, i have a few text files already saved, and i want all of them go into list box, now i developed this code, in builds, but when i press collate (or merge) it crashes, this is the code i have :

private void btnCollate_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
		{
			String strTarget = "*.Text";
			string strLine =" ";
			TextReader LoadIn = new StreamReader(strTarget);
			while (strLine !=null)
			{
				strLine = LoadIn.ReadLine();
				if (strLine !=null)
					lstQBase.Items.Add(strLine);
			}
			LoadIn.Close();

now when it crashes, it points at this line:
TextReader LoadIn = new StreamReader(strTarget);

and says Illegal character in path
can u help me please?

Use code tags when you're posting your codes!

It looks like the asterisk that's the problem.

Well, it seems like Pega is all right now, since he's disappeared.
