How Do I Make A Notepad In VB 2008?

[Cetol]

I'm trying to made one.
I think the text box is easy.
But save and open?

Please post one here.
Sorry if I'm being a noob.

Can anyone please help me?

I'm very confused about this.
I just want a save and open button

I really need some help.

I've been trying thousands of codes now!

I tried Google, but nothing came up!

I'm just going to give up on the Note pad.

Search google for reading/writing to files using Visual Basic. You may be using 2008 but you will find 2005 tutorials will most likely work with your version. Take the textbox value (you should use a richtextbox IMO) and write it to a file. When loading simply read the file to a string and apply that string to the textbox.

Hey, im just a student and so far the easiest for me to save stuff from the program to a text file - is using a normal for loop and getting it to read the stuff you want.

For instance i used this code below to read all the things in the listbox and save it to a text file.

For b As Integer = 0 To lstdisplay.Items.Count - 1

            Dim line As String

            line = lstdisplay.Items(b)

            System.IO.File.AppendAllText("File.txt", line + Environment.NewLine)

        Next

and to open im guessing you use the same as this - which would be a simple for loop to read all the lines in a text file and display them.

Hope this helps - good luck
