    <p><a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143376.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">File.WriteAllText</a> uses a StreamWriter behind the scenes:</p> <pre><code>public static void WriteAllText(string path, string contents, Encoding encoding) { using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(path, false, encoding)) { writer.Write(contents); } } </code></pre> <p>You have a string already, so converting it to a byte array would be pointless, because this is performed inside the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.streamwriter.flush.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">StreamWriter.Flush</a> method anyway using its underlying <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.text.encoder(VS.71).aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Encoder</a> class. Flush is called by the <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.streamwriter.dispose.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">StreamWriter.Dispose</a> method which the using clause calls. This is a snippet from the source of Flush via reflector:</p> <pre><code>int count = this.encoder.GetBytes(this.charBuffer, 0, this.charPos, this.byteBuffer, 0, flushEncoder); </code></pre> <p>You can see it has a charBuffer. That's just a char[] array which it writes to when you perform <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ce2kyyb4.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">StreamWriter.Write(string)</a>.</p> <p>So in short, you already have the string, just let the shorter File method perform the cascading calls, as it makes your source slightly more readable. Converting it to a byte array is also not necessary, as I mentioned the StreamWriter does it for you.</p> <p>If you're getting conversion issues then use Encoding.Unicode as the final parameter in the 3 parameter overload, as <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143375.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">File.WriteAllText(string,string)</a> uses UTF8 without a BOM.</p>

    1. COThank you for actually answering the question. Everyone else, take note of this and follow his lead. Making statements that have nothing to do with the actual question is pointless and just gets in the way.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
