I would like to load a path to a file when the form loads like this:
public void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
string path = "G:\\\\Freddy\\vb.net\\c#\\football.txt";
StreamReader (sr) = new StreamReader(path);
}

and when a combobox loads it fills the items with what evers in the file like this:

private void cmbox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
while (sr.Peek()>=0) {cbo1.Items.Add(sr.Readline ());}
cbo1.SelectedItem =0;
}
the problem is when I go to run the project it gives me an error:
G:\Freddy\vb.net\c#\football pool\Football Pool\Form1.cs(1093): The type or namespace name 'sr' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Help me please

You're calling sr in cmbox1_SelectedIndexChanged, but you declared it in
public void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e) which is
outside of the scope of cmbox1_SelectedIndexChanged. In order to fix
that, do the following:

private StreamReader sr;
public void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
string path = "G:\\\\Freddy\\vb.net\\c#\\football.txt";
sr = new StreamReader(path);
}

private void cmbox1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, System.EventArgs
e)
{
while (sr.Peek()>=0) {cbo1.Items.Add(sr.Readline ());}
cbo1.SelectedItem =0;
}

Hope this helps.

Hi Freddy,

You can also do this:

private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
string path = @"C:\temp\football.txt";
StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(path);
while (sr.Peek()>=0)
{
cbo1.Items.Add(sr.ReadLine());
}
cbo1.SelectedItem =0;
sr.Close();
}

Hope it helps. :)

Hi again,

I forget this:

are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
--> please code this at the top of the code:

using System.IO;

Thanks.

Hi freddy,

Can you try the solution i provided to you earlier? It works fine on my computer.

Windows XP Professional SP1
Visual Studio .NET 2003 EA
..NET Framework 1.1

Please make sure your football.txt contains something in there!

Please keep me updated! Thanks.

My Understanding is that you're simply trying to add the contents of the
file to the combobox right? You should do this in Form1_Load. It would
looks something like this:

private void Form1_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
string path = "G:\\\\Freddy\\vb.net\\c#\\football.txt";
StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(path);
while (sr.Peek()>=0)
cbo1.Items.Add(sr.ReadLine ());
sr.Close();
}

Don't forget to close sr when you don't use it anymore. The other
function you've used should only be called when you want to perform an
action on the element in the combobox you've selected.

Hope this helps.
