-Deano wrote Ok so I need to create a new file in program where the user enters a name and the corresponding score.
I have already created a private type called User, it consists of String * 10 followed by an Integer



    Dim Index As Integer
    Dim Counter As Integer
    Counter = 1
    Filename = App.Path & "\HighScores.txt"
    txtFilename.Text = Filename
    Open Filename For Random As #1
        For Index = 1 To 10
            NewUser.Name = InputBox("Please enter name " & Counter)
            NewUser.Score = InputBox("Please enter score " & Counter)
            Put #1, Index, NewUser
            Counter = Counter + 1
        Next Index
    Close #1

    MsgBox "New file created", _
    vbExclamation + vbOKOnly, _
    "Highscores Database"



I don't have VB at home so I can only produce what I think should work atm and then add it to my form at school.

Will this work correctly?

Not sure about VB,but I did this for C#:

string fileName = @"C:\Temp\Mahesh.txt";

try
{
    // Check if file already exists. If yes, delete it.
    if (File.Exists(fileName))
    {
        File.Delete(fileName);
    }

    // Create a new file
    using (FileStream fs = File.Create(fileName))
    {
        // Add some text to file
        Byte[] title = new UTF8Encoding(true).GetBytes("New Text File");
        fs.Write(title, 0, title.Length);
        byte[] author = new UTF8Encoding(true).GetBytes("uyyuyuyu");
        fs.Write(author, 0, author.Length);
    }

    // Open the stream and read it back.
    using (StreamReader sr = File.OpenText(fileName))
    {
        string s = "";
        while ((s = sr.ReadLine()) != null)
        {
            Console.WriteLine(s);
        }
    }
}
catch (Exception Ex)
{
    Console.WriteLine(Ex.ToString());
}
