hello

I want to create a button to save the .txt and , write what i've wrote in the source code

C#

SaveFileDialog sfd = new SaveFileDialog();
            sfd.Filter = "Queries|*.txt";
            sfd.FileName = "blabla";
            sfd.Title = "Save Querie as";
            if (sfd.ShowDialog() == System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK)
            {
                string path = sfd.FileName;
                BinaryWriter bw = new BinaryWriter(File.Create(path));
                bw.Write(" ");
                bw.Dispose();
            }

but , bw.Write(" "); should be for 1 line

C#

bw.Write("hi helo code project blabla etc");

but , what If I want many lines

C#

bw.Write("Hello
code project
blabla
etc");

but in that case , it gives me error. because it reads that I've forgot to add "); and , started new corrupted line
Is there any thing should make it?

There is a simple way to do this.
You can add the ampersand in front of your string which indicates that it is a literal including carriage returns.

C#

bw.Write(@"Hello
code project
blabla
etc");

Solution 1

Yes - add a "\n" wherever you want a new line:

C#

bw.Write("hi\nhelo\ncode project\nblabla\netc");

Will produce:

hi
helo
code project 
blabla
etc
