public partial class Form1 : Form

    private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        var syntaxEdit = new SyntaxEdit(this.components);
        textSource = new TextSource(this.components);
        textSource.LoadFile("myfile.txt");

        syntaxEdit.Source = this.textSource;
    }

    private void Button_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(textSource.Text);

}

Here is how to use a Text in the Visual Basic code:

Imports System

Imports Alternet.Editor.TextSource

Partial Public Class Form1
    Inherits Form

    Private textSource As TextSource

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        Dim syntaxEdit = New SyntaxEdit(Me.components)
        textSource = New TextSource(Me.components)
        textSource.LoadFile("myfile.txt")

        syntaxEdit.Source = Me.textSource
    End Sub

    Private Sub Button_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        Console.WriteLine(textSource.Text)
    End Sub
End Class

Remarks

Getting this property returns a string copy of the contents of the text stored by this TextSource object. Setting this property replaces the contents of the stored text with the specified string.
