Hello,

I am processing a large text file and making a lot of edits to it along the way and then writing it back using SteamWriter.

Unfortunately it is dog slow compared to VB6 and I don't know what to do about it. I am self taught occasional dabbler and need to keep things on the more basic level as well.

I am using VB.net Express 2010 and am wondering if some problems exist and are fixed in the 2013 version.

thanks in advance
