You need a minimum screen resolution of about 700 pixels width to see our exercises. This is because they contain diagrams and tables which would not be viewable easily on a mobile phone or small laptop. Please use a larger tablet, notebook or desktop computer, or change your screen resolution settings.
Someone has hidden the word Kilroy in one of the forms in the folder above - your task is to find it! First, create a form called frmHuntKilroy containing a single clickable button.
Attach code to this button to display an OpenFileDialog, allowing a user to choose one or more code files (use the filter *.cs):
Set the FileDialog's MultiSelect property, to allow multiple file selection
When a user selects one or more code files, extend your code to:
- Open each file using a StreamReader object
- Read through the lines in the file looking for the text Kilroy; then
- Close the file
Eventually you should find the word you're looking for, and display the name of the file in which you found it:
Sorry - you'll have to find out yourself!
That's it!
