Question is unclear. You can serialize an Object of some Type into JSON/XML formated string.

Wait. I guess you want to show text of your "text.txt" file in some TextBox. Is my guess correct?

You don't really need to do anything manually. Instead, use Data Contract with System.Runtime.Serialization.Json.DataContractJsonSerializer.

See:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms733127.aspx[^],
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb412179.aspx[^]
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.runtime.serialization.json.datacontractjsonserializer.aspx[^].

Please also see my past solution where I advocate this robust and easy-to-use approach:
How can I utilize XML File streamwriter and reader in my form application?[^],
Creating a property files...[^].

I explain things using System.Runtime.Serialization.Json.DataContractSerializer (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.runtime.serialization.datacontractserializer.aspx[^]), but this is applicable to System.Runtime.Serialization.Json.DataContractJsonSerializer as well.

Solution 2

Check out fastJSON[^] for the JSON part.
And look at DirectoryInfo Class[^] and FileInfo Class[^] for folder and file info.
