According to: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/system.io.streamreader.aspx

And: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/f2ke0fzy.aspx

Proof that this is the .NET for Metro Reference: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/br230232.aspx

There is a constructor for specifying a file path. Yet in Object Broswer & in the meta data it does not exist.

And apparently all .NET for Metro things are referenced in the References Tab.

I am simply trying to access a txt file from the Project Folder, nothing more. If anyone has an alternative I am all ears.
