Ok,

I figured how to use streamwriter by actually creating the object:

Sub Page_Load(S as Object, E as EventArgs)
 dim toPath as string =
"C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/minntronix/content/pages/content_includes/" &
Request.QueryString("page") & ".ascx"
 dim myStreamWriter as StreamWriter = New StreamWriter(toPath)
 myStreamWriter.WriteLine(Session("previewText"))
 myStreamWriter.Close
End Sub

Now, how do I use unicode??????

For the love of mercy, somone PLEASE help!!!!!!

Casey
