[VB.Net] Need help.

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
If Not File.Exists("settings.xox") Then
MessageBox.Show("1")
File.Create(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory & "settings.xox")
Dim CreateSettings As New StreamWriter("settings.xox")
CreateSettings.WriteLine("10")
CreateSettings.WriteLine("10")
MessageBox.Show("2")
End If
Dim OpenSettings As New StreamReader("settings.xox")
MessageBox.Show("3")
End Sub

I added these Messageboxes for Debug reasons.
If the file (settings.xox) doesnt exist, it is created, but empty. I get to see the Messageboxes 1 and 2, 3 doesn't appear.
If the file exists, none of the messageboxes show.
This doesn't make sense to me at all, can you guys help me please.

That isn't C#.

I just cut/pasted the code to look at it..

When you create the 'CreateSettings' StreamWriter, you're loading that file into memory. If the file doesn't exist, then it's opened in memory, and will stay open unless you call the close function on it (CreateSettings.Close()).

If you're ever working with Stream's, close them after you're done using them.

Oops, I haven't used streams in a while. Forgot all about that. Thank you.
