Converting vb6 to .net

[Guest]

Hi, how do i convert the following vb6 codes to .net? Nibble is variable
declared as Byte

InputString = ""
Open CurInputFileName For Binary Shared As #1
Do
Get #1, , Nibble
InputString = InputString & Chr$(Nibble)
Loop Until EOF(1)
Close #1

Probably the same, however I find coding using the streamreader class for
reading much nicer. On these "filehandling" pages are a lot of samples and
links for file handling.

I hope this helps,

Hi

i know this "Open CurInputFileName For Binary Shared As #1" can be replace
by FileOpen(1, CurInputFileName, OpenMode.Binary, OpenAccess.Write)

and "Close #1" can be replaced by FileClose(1)

BUT...i do not know how to replaced the following,

Get #1, , Nibble
InputString = InputString & Chr$(Nibble)

Can u help me explain what does the above mean??

NotRegister,

I see now that you have placed this question as well in the newsgroup
Microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb.upgrade

The guy who answered you there in that newsgroup is as well sometimes giving
answers in this newsgroup.

Therefore you can answer him there, although I assume that most probably he
is about 11 GMT or before that time active in this newsgroup as well.

You could also take a look at the BinaryReader class. That may also
help you.
