Question

Using

File.AppendAllText("c:\mytextfile.text", "This is the first line")
File.AppendAllText("c:\mytextfile.text", "This is the second line")

How do I make the second line of text appear under the first one, as if I hit the Enter key? Doing it this way simply puts the second line right next to the first line.

Answer 1

Using Environment.NewLine

File.AppendAllText("c:\mytextfile.text", "This is the first line")
File.AppendAllText("c:\mytextfile.text", Environment.NewLine + "This is the second line")

Or you can use the StreamWriter

Using writer As new StreamWriter("mytextfile.text", true)
    writer.WriteLine("This is the first line")
    writer.WriteLine("This is the second line")
End Using
