How to save the value of a string to a text file in VB2008?
I seriously suggest going with the RichTextBox control because it has the ability to SaveAs a RTF or TXT file. It also has a "Modified" property that lets you know if the RichTextBox text has been modified.


Example:


Me.RichTextBox1.SaveFile("C:\test.rtf"... RichTextBoxStreamType.RichText)





If you want to use a TextBox control then you could use the "System.IO.StreamWriter" class and write out each line.


Example:


Using writer As New System.IO.StreamWriter("C:\test.txt")


For Each line As String In Me.TextBox1.Lines


writer.WriteLine(line)


Next


End Using
