i am a newbie to programming. I have been working to make a Readme.txt generator. it is working, but i am having trouble finishing it. My problem is that i cannot get it to not overwrite the existing readme. I have it so that it will generate the readme file and save it to the desktop but when the file is already there, i tell the user that a file already exists, and ask if they want to overwrite. if you choose no, it still overwrites.
if ((text1.Equals("")) || (text4.Equals("")) || (text6.Equals("")) || (GameSet == false) || (MapSize == false)) //this line tells the system to not generate the readme if these errors occur
return;
string strFile = "ReadMe.txt";
if (File.Exists(strFile))
{
DialogResult dr = MessageBox.Show("A ReadMe file already exists here. do you want to overwrite it?", "Error", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Exclamation);
if (dr == DialogResult.No)
{
MessageBox.Show("the file was not overwritten");
return;
}
else
MessageBox.Show("The ReadMe has been successfully Generated", "Done!", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Exclamation);
}
}
