Writing text box content to a file....

[NewsBot]

Hello all,

 

I'm new here so please bear with me.* I've been writing a program that I need to store the contents of a text box in a file.* The code is pasted here.* I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.* (I've only been doing c# for 3 months....)

 

Thanks

 

Emyr

*********** try

*************** {

******************* string y;

******************* y = textBox1.Text;
