[RESOLVED] Writing And Reading File help!

[tassa]

This is a short example of how to read/write to a text file. I would suggest you read the documentation available at msdn, for more information.

Anyhow, I would use VBDT's way, it's simpler.

Private Sub Form1_FormClosing _
    (ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) _
    Handles Me.FormClosing
        'To write to the file you can do this
        Dim _newscore As String = TextBox1.Text
        IO.File.WriteAllText("filepath", "Your last score was" & TextBox1.Text)
        'Another way of accomplishing the same thing is
        Using writer As New IO.StreamWriter("filepath")
            writer.WriteLine("Your last score was" & TextBox1.Text)
        End Using
    End Sub
 
    Private Sub Form1_Load _
    (ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
    Handles MyBase.Load
        'Note that ReadAllText returns a string with all the lines of
        'a text file, so I'm assuming the file has one line...
        Dim score As String = IO.File.ReadAllText("filepath")
        'The other thing I'm assuming is that the file says something like
        'Your last score was 1000! Nice!
        MsgBox(score, MsgBoxStyle.Exclamation, "Highscore")
        'Another way to read a text file is this
        Using reader As New IO.StreamReader("filepath")
            Dim _score As String = reader.ReadToEnd
            TextBox2.Text = _score
        End Using
    End Sub
