Reading a file with C#
Reading a text file line by line in C#. Dont forget to include using System.IO;
StreamReader myReader = new StreamReader(@"c:\test.txt"); string line = ""; while (line != null) { line = myReader.ReadLine(); Console.WriteLine(line); }
You can read all the text within a file using the ReadAllText function.
string filename = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments) + @"\test.txt"; string content = File.ReadAllText(filename); MessageBox.Show(content);
