Hi, I'm developing a program that has to read a text-file and write to it. I do not have to display the file to the user. So I'm wondering, would it be better to load the file in a textbox or use a string variabel to store it? Thanks.

A String Variable has more Adavantages over the Textbox in Terms of Storage Capacity and Speed.

Textbox has a Maximum Length and it's a Control, so has extended properties, taking up more memory, making it slower to access.
