Text1.Text = "abc.txt" ?!

But it depends how do you choose a particular file that you want displayed. Do you show a Common Dialog so you can browse to the file? Or do you add a FileListBox/DirListBox controls to the form to do it? Or use Dir() function to list files in a particular folder... and so on. You have to explain what exactly you want to achieve before anyone can give you more info.

ya......
i want to show abc.txt to textbox ...
so......., if i load the inside of abc.txt to textbox1

then the textbox2 show the file name directly

Or, the opposite ?

You enter the filename in textbox1 and then textbox2 will display its contents...

Again, all you mentioned is quite easy to achieve, but depends on how the "abc.txt" file is selected. How do you decide which file name and contents you want to display of all the files on your computer?

You mean like this?

Text1.Text = Dir("Test1\*.txt")

thanks....
but if i've 2 file ABC.txt and DEF.txt, it won't work. the code just can use to show ABC.txt not DEF.txt

[akhileshbc]

Means, you want to list the contents of file and the filename, for all files in a folder, one by one ?

[ThEiMp]

-- Can you please ellaberate on what you want us to show you???

Text1.Text = Picture1.Name & ".txt"

[RizChan]

Means, you want to list the contents of file and the filename, for all files in a folder, one by one ?

yaa....
but...
example :
if i click on command5 then show file DEF.txt and the contents to textbox

and if i click on (Ex: Command6) then show file name (ABC.txt) to textbox2 and the contents to textbox1

[ThEiMp]

Command1_Click()
Open "Text1.txt" For Input As #1
Input #1, Text1.Text
Close #1

End Sub

[akhileshbc]

yaa....
but...
example :
if i click on command5 then show file DEF.txt and the contents to textbox

and if i click on (Ex: Command6) then show file name (ABC.txt) to textbox2 and the contents to textbox1

Still it is not clear about how you'll get the filenames ! I mean, whether the filenames are hardcoded or found from a folder or from a filelistbox, etc..!

if i click on (Ex: Command6) then show file name (ABC.txt) to textbox2 and the contents to textbox1

The code for doing this is already posted by westconn1 in post#2

this is :

"" + App.Path + "\Test1\abc.txt"

[baja_yu]

Instead of + use & for string concatenation. You also don't need the first "" +... there's no point.

So, I don't see what's the problem?! Just do

Text1.Text = App.Path & "\Test1\abc.txt"

Hahaha...
i don't know if this char ("" +) not use...
thanks for the tips...
and...
@all thanks for help me, i think i got what i want to do...

[ThEiMp]

-- I never knew that you could use the + for inconjunction of the & characters!!

[CDRIVE]

-- I never knew that you could use the + for inconjunction of the & characters!!

That's a good thing. It means you've never made the error that most nubes did.

--Why thankyou, CDRIVE...
