    Saving input information to a .txt file

    I`m having trouble saving input info to a file.
    So, i`m using 2 commands.
    1) System.IO.File.ReadAllLines()
    2) System.IO.File.WriteAllLines()

    So, what are the arguments of these commands? Okay, i know what they are - string path, string[] contents, Encoding etc, but i dont actually know what they mean, could anyone explain me, with examples? And will theese commands save all inputted info to the file(the program is a cikle which asks to input ex. The last name, occupation, incomes etc of countless people and i want all the information to be saved into a .txt file, line by line )
    P.S i`m using NET3.5 / VS 2008

    string path - Is the path where is file getting stored/saved in the hard disk/memory.

    eg; C:/Data/Values

    string[] contents --> Is the array of contents which are written to the file.

    Encoding --> Is the format in which the data is written.. Is it binary, ascii, etc...

    study in MSDN more about these functions...
