How to use hadoop for text file?

How can you use a variable as a text file name in visual basic?

• When i press a button in visual basic it creates a variable, i would like to use that variable as the name of a text file, is this possible?

• Answer:

  You can use a string variable to hold the file name . The path and name of the file can be hard coded, assigned from a textbox.text property or can be determind by the use of a dialog box which allows the user to browse to a specific file. dim dlg as new OpenFileDialog dim sPath as string with dlg . filter = "All Files (*.*)|*.*|Text File (*.txt)|*.txt" if .showdialog = cancel then exit sub else sPath = .filename end if
