To rephrase, what you want to do is write a new file containing only what is
in-between Recipie/End Recipie. So, open one file for reading (the file you
want to edit) and one for writing (create a temporary file). Then read in
lines from the first file until you find the keyword. Then search until you
find the second keyword. Then write out to the second file what you read
between finding the first keyword and the second keyword. Rinse and repeat.

Some tweaking required for me verboseenglish.NET code given above.

I'm kind of new to vb.net so could you help me with some of the
coding. I know how to open read, create and write files but how do I
write what is between the key words to a temp file.

maybe something like:

line = inputfile.readline
while line <> Keyword1
output.writeline(line)
end while

then what should I do.....?

Thank you!
