Why not just use notepad?

What? Easy.

1. Create a new project
2. Draw a text box that fills up the entire form
3. Set the "MultiLine" property of the TextBox to "True"
4. Compile

If you use the Rich Textbox, you can use the Save function.
If not :

public sub savefile(filename as string, text as string)
dim ff as integer
ff = freefile
open filename for ouput as #1
print #1, text
close #1
end sub

for example.

Why not use Textpad?

i made a whole notepad before with different types of encryptions you could save as and open, it was cool, but then i lost all my source, just go on www.pscode.com and look for notepad and a ton of source codes will come up
