This is the code for the first button to save the text to your file. Make sure the textbox you want is Textbox1 as it specifies.

 If System.IO.File.Exists(C:\FileOfChoice.txt) = True Then
            Dim wr As IO.TextWriter
            wr = IO.File.CreateText(C:\FileOfChoice.txt)
            wr.Write(TextBox1.Text)
            wr.WriteLine()
            wr.Flush()
            wr.Close()

Now for a button to load the text try:

Dim FILENAME As String = "C:\FileOfChoice.txt"
If System.IO.File.Exists(FILENAME) = True Then
Dim objReader As New System.IO.StreamReader(FILENAME)
TextBox1.Text = objReader.ReadToEnd
objReader.Close()
Else
MsgBox("File cannot be found")
End If

So there should be two buttons and a textbox (Textbox1)
The first button saves the text in the textbox to the file, and the second loads the text from the file into the textbox.


Hope that helps. :-)

Sorry, the directories should be in quotes. I forgot to type them :3

"C:\Users\Casper\Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\Program open\Program open\Form1.vb"

With quotes.

Ryoushi, you sems to know alot about Vb, do you know how to get my program to open ex. FireFox or Wow when i click in CheckBox1 then it open firefox and when i click on CheckBox2 then it open WoW but when i type in the part to where my Inter Explorer are in the textbox1 then when i CheckBox1 it well open IE and not firefox.
I have try this

PrivateSub Button1_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
If CheckBox12.Checked = TrueThen
if textbox1.text = "" then
Process.Start("C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe")
else 
Process.Start("textbox1.text")
end sub
end class

and

navigate = TextBox1.Text

but no of thors work : /

Think you can help me with this to? :P

[Ryoushi.]

If CheckBox12.Checked = TrueThen

Is it supposed to be Checkbox12...?

Also, your code says:

if textbox1.text = "" then
Process.Start("C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe")
else 
Process.Start("textbox1.text")

So the if textbox1.text = "" part is saying that if the textbox is empty, open firefox.
But the textbox isn't empty, so it's starting whatever is in textbox1.text because of the 'else'.

[Murdok]

i believe it is

checkbox1.value = "1"

and the other code will open firefox if it is empty but it needs an end if

[kazama]

Well nvm, Ryoushi you just asw me in the other post about config button (:

If CheckBox12.Checked = TrueThen
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(TextBox1.Text)
EndIf
