gotta problem :s

I'll stick my neck out and say you need a rich text box if it is to display a text file.

To load the textfile into the rich text box on demand:

VB Code:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
  Me.RichTextBox1.LoadFile ("c:\tmp\test.txt")
End Sub

Or you can load a textfile into a basic textbox using:

VB Code:

Dim szLineInput As String
Open "C:\Nucleus.txt" For Input As #1
Do Until EOF(1)
Input #1, szLineInput
Text1 = Text1 & vbCrLf & szLineInput
Loop

hi, liquidor gain
it's an animation (*.ani)
is it possible to put it in a form ?
