[RESOLVED] [2005] Using VS2005 To read text files and separate lines.

Hi there,

I have found out how to read the contents of a file in one go.

Now i need to separate the whole string into line by line, how do i do that?
I understand i can use string.split command, but what is the character entry for the line break?

Cheers!

VB Code:

If IO.File.Exists(Me.txtFilePath.Text) = True Then
            Dim fileText As String = My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllText(Me.txtFilePath.Text)
            Me.rtbContents.Text = fileText
        End If

Use ReadAllLines straight to an array

VB Code:

Dim fileText() As String = IO.File.ReadAllLines(Me.txtFilePath.Text)
 
'or arraylist
Dim fileText As New ArrayList(IO.File.ReadAllLines(Me.txtFilePath.Text))

VB Code:

Dim fileText() As String = IO.File.ReadAllLines(Me.txtFilePath.Text)
            Dim str() As String = filetext(n).split(",")
