Or should I use another method?

Hi Angelo,

Is the type of your file a txt file that you are reading and writing?

Don't use them, the FileXXX functions in VB.NET are really slow. Use the
classes from System.IO directly. If your doing binary IO, you'll more
then likely want to look at the System.IO.BinaryReader and System.IO.BinaryWriter.

Hi Angelo,

Thanks for your message, because I was curious about that.

(I never used the fileGet however)
