Question

I am trying to write a CSV file using the NuGet CsvHelper Package. When I run the controller action I’m seeing “Cannot access a closed file.”

 SurveyResponseModel person = surveyResponseRepository.Get().Include(s => s.PersonModel).FirstOrDefault();

    using (var csv = new CsvWriter(new StreamWriter("file.csv")))
    {
        csv.Configuration.HasHeaderRecord = false;
        csv.Configuration.Delimiter = ',';
        csv.WriteRecord(person);
    }

I’m not sure what is causing this. Anybody know how I can get this to write a .CSV file?

I had to declare a specific path like:

  using (var csv = new CsvWriter(new StreamWriter(@"c:\file.csv")))
