Russel,
Have a look at these pages where are links inside. There are samples and one
of those will probably include your question or almost your question.
What you have to do is
Create a windowsform project
Drag from your toolbox on the left a textbox to the form
Drag a button on your form
Click on that button
Insert this code inside the sub you see.
\\\\
Try
Dim sr As New StreamReader("Your Path of the file")
textBox1. = sr.ReadToEnd()
sr.Close()
Catch Ex As Exception
' Let the user know what went wrong.
MessageBox.Show("The file could not be read:" & Ex.Message)
End Try
////
Do debug start
