Answered How to make file readonly programatically?

[capedech]

Hi,
I am making a program to save it to (.txt).
I am making it using System.IO.
So far, my program can save the file already.
But, I don't know how to make it readonly programatically.
Please help me.

Thanks in Advance.

Regards,

This should answer your question: Please help, Writing hidden and Readonly file in vb.net

Along the lines of what MattP's already posted, I would simply use a FileInfo object:

Dim CurrFile As New FileInfo(FileName)
CurrFile.Attributes = CurrFile.Attributes Or FileAttributes.ReadOnly
