I've understand PHP alright but I've never used VB. Here are my questions. Can I make...

1) ...certain text in an application load from a text file? Including in different places - eg. either in a "static" part of the interface (so its not editable) and also into a textbox area (so you can edit it).

2)... text in a textbox be saved back into a text file?

3 ... affix the date to the top line only of a text box?

4)... an application scan through words in a textbox, compare them to a bunch of words in a text file, and change every words that match into uppercase and into a different colour.

And how can I do it?
