Down Rodeo said: It's telling you that a TextBox, i.e. component of a Windows form, is not a string. You need to so something like textbox.contents, or .text, or whatever the class definition says.
So you're saying
[map20text is the name of the inputbox]
or
??
Edit ::
Thank you DR you're a freakin' genius.
That works...well until I fuck it up again.
...then I got some ap, and shot a big ass lazar at everyone.

Just so it makes a little more sense, the reason textbox.contents didn't work is because contents isn't a property of the textbox. When you do textbox1.text it is basically saying "The text property of textbox1". When you are in the design tab of your application, and you click on an object, the properties box down in the bottom right is all the properties for that object. So if you wanted to change the border style for the text box you could do textbox1.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.Fixed3D
So basically, anything in the properties box for a particular object is what you can use when your coding it.

Down Rodeo said: Rockbomb is in fact correct. If you're using Visual Studio there should be some sort of code completion.
Yes, I turned that off don't like it at all.
Edit :: New Question
So I have an ellipsis button that, when I click it, I wan't it to open a new gui specifically windows explorer so that they can search for their file.
Well lucky for you, Sprinkles, I happen to be a novice in Visual Basic, you would do something like this
Visual Basic code Dim myStream As Stream = Nothing
Dim openFileDialog1 As New OpenFileDialog()
openFileDialog1.InitialDirectory = "c:\"
openFileDialog1.Filter = "Map files (*.map)|*.map|All files (*.*)|*.*"
openFileDialog1.FilterIndex = 2
openFileDialog1.RestoreDirectory = True
If openFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
Try
myStream = openFileDialog1.OpenFile()
If (myStream IsNot Nothing) Then
' Insert code to read the stream here.
End If
Catch Ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show("Cannot read file from disk. Original error: " & Ex.Message)
Finally
' Check this again, since we need to make sure we didn't throw an exception on open.
If (myStream IsNot Nothing) Then
myStream.Close()
End If
End Try
End If I don't know what it does but Microsoft said it will work.
...then I got some ap, and shot a big ass lazar at everyone.

I think it's to show you exactly what its doing.
VB.net code Dim boblee As String They do the same thing, but I guess the c++ one is more confusing?
