Thanks for the answer , so i have a problem ^^
I'v got this code on a webpage :
VB.NET:
 Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        TextBox1.Visible = True
        Dim file As New System.IO.StringReader("C:\Documents and Settings\Travail(hugo)\Mes documents\test.txt")
        TextBox1.Text = file.ToString
    End Sub

Ad after online the value of the textbox is "System.IO.StringReader" or my .txt file named "test" contain this "test test code"

Thanks for the help
 
Try something like this (please be aware that test.txt needs to be located somewhere into the web app):


Dim MyTestFile As String = IO.Path.Combine(Server.MapPath("~", "test.txt")
        If IO.File.Exists(MyTestFile ) Then
   Dim sr As New StreamReader(MyTestFile )
   TextBox1.Text = sr.ReadToEnd()
   sr.Close()
   sr.Dispose()
        Else
