[RESOLVED] Remembering Text.

So I want to create a small notepad, that on closure, saves whatever is in the noetpad without a prompt, and when opened, displays in the notepad what was in it before it closed.

Can anyone help me with this? The notepad is just a simple TextBox.

Thanks in Advance guys :).

you could use (ApplicationSettings):

1/ select your textbox in your design time form
2/ expand (ApplicationSettings) in your properties window
3/ select (PropertyBindings) + click the ellipsis to the right
4/ select the text property in the dialog + click the dropdown arrow to the right
5/ click New in the dropdown menu + type in a name for the property in the New Application Setting window
6/ click OK on the New Application Setting window
7/ click OK on the Application Settings window

may be you can use Settings like this:

Code:

---


 Private Sub Form1_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
        My.Settings("Notepad") = TextBox1.Text

    End Sub

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        TextBox1.Text = My.Settings("Notepad")

    End Sub

@riteshjain1982 - you forgot to mention that you need to add a my.settings string setting named Notepad to use that method

how do you do that?

Project-->Properties-->Settings, + you can probably work it out from there...
