Seeing if a file exists

[devil666]

hello!

I need to see if a text file exists...

can someone give me the code to read a text file, or the equal opposite of this:

Dim strName As New System.IO.FileStream(Application.StartupPath & "\" & Me.TextBox1.Text & ".txt", IO.FileMode.OpenOrCreate, IO.FileAccess.ReadWrite)
Dim sw As New IO.StreamWriter(strName)
sw.WriteLine("User Name: " & Me.TextBox1.Text)
sw.WriteLine()
sw.WriteLine("Password: " & Me.MaskedTextBox1.Text)
sw.Close()
sw.Dispose()
MyBase.Close()

well, for example, could you explain where to put the code?

Really Good

Dim FILE_NAME As String = ("c:\whatever.txt")
Dim objWriter As New System.IO.StreamWriter(FILE_NAME, False)

The (FILE_NAME, False) checks to see if the file is there and if its not it creates it.

Amazing, just two lines of code, that's all i needed, Thanks.
