Question

I have a filename pointing to a text file, including its path, as a string. Now I’d like to load this .csv file into memory stream. How should I do that?

For example, I have this:

Dim filename as string="C:\Users\Desktop\abc.csv"

You don’t need to load a file into a MemoryStream.

You can simply call File.OpenRead to get a FileStream containing the file.

If you really want the file to be in a MemoryStream, you can call CopyTo to copy the FileStream to a MemoryStream.
