VB - Writing to a file with StreamWriter
20,360
Dim write As IO.StreamWriter
Try
write=New IO.StreamWriter(file)
write.write(txtEncryption.text)
Catch ex As Exception
'Prompt error
Console.WriteLine("Error {0}",ex.Message)
Finally
If write IsNot Nothing Then
write.Close()
End If
End Try
Assumption (if file was not opened anywhere else) : You open already opened one.Make sure that all your opened streams closed properly. You can use this syntax too
Using writer As StreamWriter = New StreamWriter(file)
writer.Write("....")
//and so on
End Using

I'm trying to write to a file using the StreamWriter.
Dim write as IO.StreamWriter write = new io.streamwriter(file) write.write(txtEncryption.text) write.close
I stopped the code in debug mode and i saw it crashes and goes straight to the exception when reaches line 2.
It is because i just made the file and it's still in use ? How can i avoid that ?

qwr over 10 years@user3246386 I posted code that will handle error. Probably you open file but without closing you try to open again. So use using to handle close per open properly
