Anybody know how read a text file and show your text in a variable?
Ex. one very simple text file with on text file ("Hello World" in hello.txt)

1. var1 = open the hello.txt
2. char *var = var1

Thanks

Are trying to do this using Managed Extensions? If yes then you can use the System::IO::StreamReader to read in the file and then assign it to a variable:

String* str; //string variable
System::IO::StreamReader* reads = new System::IO::StreamReader(S"hello.txt");
//new instance of StreamReader
str = reads->ReadToEnd(); //read the whole file using the ReadToEnd() method
reads->Close();

christ this sort of code is kinda scaring me into not learning VC++

I know, me too... I almost gave up on VC.NET and went to VB6.0
