Plain Text Return

  For some weird reason, you're right, \n is not properly saved on a TextFile. The way I save multi-lines of text is I split the string into lines, using \n as my delimiter:
  
  string test = "Test\nTest in line2";
  string [] lines = test.Split('\n');
  
  And then, if I work on a TextWriter, I usually iterate through the lines of strings, and use the WriteLine() method instead of Write(), here's a code to show my method:
  
  string test = "Test\nTest in line2";
  string [] lines = test.Split('\n');
     
  TextWriter tw = new StreamWriter(@"c:/test.txt");
     
   foreach(string line in lines)
   {
    tw.WriteLine(line);
   }

  tw.Close();

  // To display it on a multi-line TextBox:
  textBox1.Lines = lines;
  
  
  Maybe other people here can give us a better approach.

  Try using "Environment.NewLine". This post is not in the correct forum though.

  Thanks for your answers. I used the Environment::NewLine and it works for me. Splitting the textbox into an array was also a good idea.
  
  Thanks
