I'm all in favor of streaming data, especially when the amount of data can be large and there really is no need to have it all in memory at once; streaming then means having an explicit loop of input-process-output, dealing with a fraction of the data at a time.
When the amount of data is known to be really small, or there is a need to have it all at once, then one can rightfully decide not to stream, and to read or write all in one go; but then I insist on taking the easiest way to do that, which is by using a single File method.
Using a stream class to not stream the data just does not make any sense. StreamReader.ReadToEnd() gets abused over and over, almost as much as String.ToString().

It's a resource, not a file, in this case.

My mistake, sorry.

|

Have you added the file to the project as an embedded resource?
Best regards

Is there a question mixed in there somewhere?

what is that soposto mean??
That C# code is for those who want to create split file app jst copy n paste n modify put in buttons etc.
At one point i needed one so i put this out for those who where in my position!!!!!

Then write an article instead of posting code in forums where questions are asked...

It's "supposed". TXTSPEAK is heavily frowed upon here as it makes you look childish.

OK, great. The problem you didn't consider is that the forums fill up so fast nobody will see your code by the end of next week because it'll be buried by a dozen pages of forum posts.
Yeah and don't think "Oh it'll still be visible because of Google." Think again. If everyone used Google people would be finding their own answers instead of relying on the regulars here to spoon-feed them answers.

It's just a shame that you ignored the tips and tricks, and articles sections where this would have ben much better received.

If you look at the very first item in this forum, it says "How to ask a question". This forum is for asking questions. So when you post something like that, we are left wondering what the questions is. In any case, you could have been more clear by stating that you're not asking a question(which the purpose of the forum) but posting a solution to a problem you encountered. Nonetheless, thanks for sharing.

Right now due to increasing our recruitment possibilities of new staff we are moving over to C#
What is the best way that I can go about making a data collection object available to all forms in C#
In Visual Basic we can use a module and put in a friend based variable i.e. friend GlobalData as string. (the string variable is the easiest way I could explain this as an example!) This then makes the variable available to any form / class in the assembly.
Is there a way of doing this in C# or do I have to look at passing the information back and forth between each form?
Many Thanks
Simon

All you need do is create a static property or member.

A single static instance of a data storage class, probably. You could make the data storage class itself static but that makes it trickier to, for example, serialise it. Put this static instance somewhere that all classes have access to. For example
public class DataStore {
public int AwesomenessFactor;
public string Description;
public static DataStore Global = new DataStore();
}
And access it (from anywhere) with
DataStore.Global.(field)
Try to restrict the amount of global data you have, though. Global data is generally symptomatic of a poor design, because (by definition) it's coupled to everything, and excessive coupling is a maintenance problem.

The use of "Global" data is firstly limited to the search of a client, on a successful search it retrieves their insurance portfolio.
i.e. Search For me Simon Whale
it will return a list of all the quotes (this is restricted to a predefined date range) and live insurance policies that I have and its associated child objects only. This accommodates the archive strategy that management has made as a major requirement of the back office system.

This is something that I have to fight / deal with the managements requests on the system design.

This does imply to me that there is a back-end database here of all Customers, and you are querying it to retrieve a specific Customer's data.
In this context, the concerns Bob J. raises here about whether this is a multi-user access scenario, where threading may come into play, and where many users may be viewing the same Customer's data seem very salient. Who gets to change said data ? Who gets read-only permissions.

Thanks for the response Bill.
I have taken into account the business logic of opening more than one client at a time.
My question at the time was what was the best way of passing this collection of client information through 1 to many different forms, which I knew that I was doing but not in the best way but with the moving towards c# was after how to do it in c# and BETTER.
Luc pointed my towards a more OO method of passing the data between forms by using properties
Thanks
