TextBox Query

[Patrick De Ridder]

Sorry, this must be very elementary:

When writing line 1 to a textBox,
pressing return
writing line 2 to same tetBox.

Saving that to disc.
using (StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter ("memo.txt"))
{
sw.WriteLine(textBox1.Text);
}

Reading that from disk.
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader ("memo.txt"))
{
textBox1.Text=sr.ReadLine();
}

I only get the line 1 back.
Q: How do I get all lines back?

Well, first of all, you probably don't want to use ReadLine and WriteLine
since you're only writing one line (the first or last one, I suspect) and
reading that same one line. Instead StreamWriter.Write() the entire
textBox.Text buffer. Then just StreamReader.Read() the entire buffer back
and you'll get your linefeeds and carriage returns.

You'll have to loop it until there's no more to be read.

like,

string newLine;
while ((newLine = sr.ReadLine) != null)
{
textBox1.Append(newLine);
}
