[RESOLVED] Importing text file into active form

[sawk]

Hi

I have made a user interface for a dos based program, the dos based program stores its results in a text file. Is there a way to import this directly into a active form window or a text box?

thanks

To load a standard text file into a TextBox you can use:

Private Sub Form_Load()
    Dim intFF As Integer
    
    intFF = FreeFile
    
    Open "C:\path\to\your\file\here.txt" For Input As #intFF
        Text1.Text = Input(LOF(intFF), intFF)
    Close #intFF
    
End Sub
