0	For Stream objects first you should call the .Close() method and .Dispose() method. Better to use using block while using Streams, eg. using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter......) { // your code goes here } Above will ensure that the stream writer is closed and disposed after the use Regards, Sheo Narayan http://www.dotnetfunda.com Vforvijay, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator
