creating files in VB
- Thread starter napio
- Start date
well thats not possible 
but you mean text file type? it can be open with the 'open with...' feature in windows... but all you reall yhave to do is save the file with any ending... ie. myfile.pfl is the format i use for one of my programs... and it will still look at it as a text file 
hope this helps in the begining man created code.
in the end code will create man.
clones are coming only matter of time.
examples?

Napio,
To open any file only with your program, you can do one thing, but it is a bit difficult. Anyway, one of the solution which I used for a similar problem was to create a "Dll" file in VB with two functions "Encrypt" and "Decrypt" to encode and decode any file. Now initally you encrypt your file separately. When your program is run, you call the "Dll file" routine "Decrypt" to decode the file, work with it and when your program is closed you "Encrypt" it.
This will prevent your program from being accessed other than your program.
Hope this helps,
Regards.
