Files

Reading text files line by line:
Dim f1 As Long
dim filestring as string

f1 = FreeFile()
FileOpen(f1, My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "\filename.txt", OpenMode.Input)
Do Until EOF(f1)

filestring=LineInput(f1)

Loop
FileClose(f1)
Note: My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "\filename.txt" may be replaced by "C:\some_path\file.txt"


Writing text files line by line:
Dim f1 As Long

f1 = FreeFile()
FileOpen(f1, My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "\filename.txt", OpenMode.Output
Print(f1, "This is line 1")
Print(f1, "This is line 2")
FileClose(f1)

User-Defined Type (structure) (inherits from System.ValueType) Sum of the sizes of its members Each member of the structure has a range determined by its data type and independent
   of the ranges of the other members
