Opening a file

I want to open a file and read everything in it and put that data in a string variable...anyone know how to do this?

VB Code:

Dim strText as String
Open "C:\Temp\test.txt" for Input as #1
strText = Input(LOF(1), 1)
msgbox "File contents: " & vbcrlf & strText
Close #1

All in one variable??? :rolleyes:

Well you could try this:

Put a RichTextBox on the form.

Dim hugestring as string

RichTextBox.Loadfile("yourfile.txt",rtfText)

hugestring = RichTextBox.Text
