Error Opening Text Files [Resolved]

Hi, I have a GUI with a button and a textbox. And when I press open, it should open up the text file which I chose. It works fine until I tried to open up a text file with a , on the last line of the text. It will generate an error 62, past end of file. Is there any modifications I can do to my code to solve this problem because most of the textfiles I open have a , at the last line, therefore, if this problem is not solve, my GUI will not serve its purpose. Thanks.

The code for the button is:

VB Code:

Private Sub cmdShowOpen_Click()
 
On Error GoTo errHandler
 
    With CommonDialog1
        .Filter = "Text (*.txt)|*.txt"
        .InitDir = "C:\Program Files\My Files"
        .ShowOpen
        
    If Len(.FileName) Then
    Open .FileName For Input As #1
    txtLog.Text = Input$(LOF(1), #1)
    Close #1
    End If
    
    End With
 
Exit Sub
errHandler:
    MsgBox Err.Number & " " & Err.Description
    
End Sub

The problem is that you're opening your file For Input, which assumes a text-file - and not a binary file. To open a file for binary (which I suggest you do anyway irresepctive of the file type), use the following code:

VB Code:

Private Sub cmdShowOpen_Click()
 
On Error GoTo errHandler
    Dim strBuff As String
 
    With CommonDialog1
        .Filter = "Text (*.txt)|*.txt"
        .InitDir = "C:\Program Files\My Files"
        .ShowOpen
        If Len(.FileName) Then
            Open .FileName For [b]Binary[/b]
                strBuff = Space(Lof(1))
                Get #1, , strBuff
                txtLog.Text = strBuff
                strBuff = vbNullString
            Close #1
        End If
    End With
 
Exit Sub
 
errHandler:
    MsgBox Err.Number & " " & Err.Description    
End Sub

Oh ok, I changed my codes to the one below after looking at urs and it works, thanks.


Private Sub cmdShowOpen_Click()

On Error GoTo errHandler
Dim strBuff As String

With CommonDialog1
.Filter = "Text (*.txt)|*.txt"
.InitDir = "C:\Program Files\My Files"
.ShowOpen
If Len(.FileName) Then
Open .FileName For Binary As #1
strBuff = Space(LOF(1))
Get #1, , strBuff
txtLog.Text = strBuff
strBuff = vbNullString
Close #1
End If
End With

Exit Sub

errHandler:
MsgBox Err.Number & " " & Err.Description
End Sub
