I have 3 TextReaders -- a combination of StreamReaders and StringReaders. Conceptually, the concatenation of them is a single text document. I want to call a method (not under my control) that takes a single TextReader. Is there any built-in or easy way to make a concatenating TextReader from multiple TextReaders? (I could write my o...
I have an application that I've been tasked with cleaning up after. The application itself is relatively simple - it runs a SQL query, consumes a web service, and spews the results to a log file.

Hi, I'd like to open a text file and not allow any other processes to write to it. I understand I can do this with the following FileStream: Dim fs As New FileStream(_FilePath, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.ReadWrite, FileShare.Read) Once I have access like this I need to read all of the lines (I will use a StreamReader(fs)) and then I w...
