C# Stream Problems
Hi All

I have designed an app in MS Visual C# 2005 Xpress.
I used only one form and then on it a tab page layout.
This program will be used for data capturing.
If the user enters data in the "Deliveries Tab", they can save it by clicking "Store 2".
For the code I used the following to save the data in all boxes:

(Toggle Plain Text) 
 private void btnUpdateDeliveries_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            try
            {
                //Saving Tracking Information Database File
                StreamWriter write_report = new StreamWriter
(@"C:\Documents and Settings\User\My Documents\Synaps Files\Synaps Database\Tracking Files\" +
                    "SYNAPS_TRACKING " +
                    txtSaveDelivery_Report.Text);

                write_report.WriteLine(cbxClients_a.Text);
                write_report.WriteLine(cbxClients_a1.Text);
                write_report.WriteLine(cbxClients_a2.Text);
                write_report.WriteLine(cbxClients_a3.Text);
                write_report.WriteLine(cbxClients_a4.Text);
                write_report.WriteLine(cbxClients_a5.Text);
                write_report.WriteLine(cbxClients_a6.Text);
                write_report.WriteLine(cbxClients_a7.Text);
                write_report.WriteLine(cbxClients_a8.Text);

                write_report.WriteLine(rtbContainer_a.Text);
                write_report.WriteLine(rtbContainer_a1.Text);

So that all seems to work fine, untill I try to Open it.
Not all the data I saved as text get opened, leaving blank blocks here and there.
Any idea what could cause this?
This is the code to open it with:

(Toggle Plain Text) 
 private void toolStripButton2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

            try

                    txtOpenDelivery.Text);

                  "System.IO Error", MessageBoxButtons.RetryCancel,
                  MessageBoxIcon.Error);
            }
        }
Any ideas why this is happening?
I tried to look into the code but can't seem to find out why the data doesn't populate all the boxes?

Any help will be much appreciated, even just a nudge in right direction.

Re: C# Stream Problems
I'm assuming cbx is a combobox. Don't you have to add to the items collection on a combobox?

Yes, I just took it at whatever time the combobox displays a collection item, that item's text value will represent the 'combobox.Text' I believe?

Thanks for the input guys, I allways appreciate all comments from more experienced programmers.

But I don't understand now; I changed the save location of the streamed file to
(Toggle Plain Text) 
StreamReader readnow = new StreamReader
                    (@"C:/"
                    + txtOpenName.Text);

and now the program runs fine and the data saved now gets called up in the correct fields. I just don't get it. Bad code?

Screenshots of app running correctly now included.
Any idea what could have caused this weird app behaviour maybe?

Thanks for all the help again.

I've never seen or used this before, is it a requirement for C#? Is that a regular expression of some kind?

I would assume it's because you're not escaping your backslashes, but I don't know if that's necessary in C#
Also, you use a forward slash in your new filepath...technically that shouldn't work I think.

Dunno man, got my examples from this online tutorial...
http://www.functionx.com/vcsharp/databases/file2.htm

I think you can use both '//' or '@' in C#, but not 100% sure.

@mrynit: Not exactly sure what you mean with repeated code?
Is there another way of doing this? Still learning so I followed the style used in the tutorial in the link I gave above.

Thanks again

Re: C# Stream Problems
The @ character means "don't allow escaping in the following string literal." You don't need it for "C:/" as it uses a forward-slash not a backslash, but, for example, these strings are syntactically equivalent:
(Toggle Plain Text) 
"C:\\Program Files\\Developer\\Application\\Run.exe"
@"C:\Program Files\Developer\Application\Run.exe"
