[Guide] Visual Basic 2008 - How To Make A File Editor - MMOwned - World of Warcraft Exploits, Hacks, Bots and Guides

Design :

1) Make a "Rich Textbox" and make it fill everything, but make a place for at toolstrip in the top.
2) Add a "Toolstrip Menu"
3) Press "Make New" (Also known as "Arrow down")
4) Choose "DropDown Button"
5) Right-Click the DropDown Button, choose "Display Style" and say Text.
6) now call it file, and make the following dropdown buttons :
Open
Save
Exit
7) Now do the same again, but call the new dropdown menu "Edit" and add the following dropdown buttons:
Undo
Redo
Copy
Paste
Cut
8) now to the coding.

Code :
1) For the "Undo" button use this code :

Code:

RichTextBox1.Undo()

2) For the "Redo" button use this code :

Code:

RichTextBox1.Redo()

3) For the "Copy" button use this code :

Code:

RichTextBox1.Copy()

4) For The "Paste" button use this code :

Code:

RichTextBox1.Paste()

5) For the "Cut" button use this code :

Code:

RichTextBox1.Cut()

These codes are also called "Drag and Drop codes" becourse their so easy. its just "Element.Function" so its not hard

6) For "Open" button use this code:
(This code is a bit bigger)

Code:

Dim Open As New OpenFileDialog()
        Dim myStreamReader As System.IO.StreamReader
        Open.Filter = "All Files[*.*]|*.*"
        Open.CheckFileExists = True
        Open.Title = "Open File"
        Open.ShowDialog(Me)
        Try
            Open.OpenFile()
            myStreamReader = System.IO.File.OpenText(Open.FileName)
            Document.Text = myStreamReader.ReadToEnd()
        Catch ex As Exception

        End Try

let me explain how this works, Stream Writer & Stream Reader is like "Save & Load" becourse "Stream Writer" writes text (Same as SAVE) and Stream Reader says itself in the name xD
"Dim" mean Make A New Code As [System File]
lets get to the next code, shall we ?
7) For the "Save" button use this code :

Code:

Dim Save As New SaveFileDialog()
        Dim myStreamWriter As System.IO.StreamWriter
        Save.Filter = "All Files[*.*]|*.*"
        Save.CheckPathExists = True
        Save.Title = "Save File"
        Save.ShowDialog(Me)
        Try
            myStreamWriter = System.IO.File.AppendText(Save.FileName)
            myStreamWriter.Write(Document.Text)
            myStreamWriter.Flush()
        Catch ex As Exception
            'Do nothing on Exception'
        End Try

i just told how Stream Reader and Stream Writer works, so u can easily figure this cod out.
8) For "Exit" button use this code :

Code:

Me.Close()

Remember the "Exit" code, u can use this in al programs as a "Close Button" or something. "Me" means [This Form] so if ur in form 2 and wanna close form 1 use "Form1.Close()

Thanks for Looking, Enjoy

I would suggest doing something about the anchors, because if someone wanted to maximize the form, the text box would be one one place and not stretch with the form.
