Code:

#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main(void)
{
	string input;
	ifstream in("c:\\new.txt");

	while(!in.eof())
	{
		getline(in, input, (char)EOF);
		cout<<input;
	}

	return 0;
}

That's the most basic way I know...it's in C++.

Be more specific and I can tell you want you want to hear

It really does, though...that's the beautiful thing about it.

look, I'll compile it on MSVC++ and stick it into a windows app rrrriiiiigggghhhhtttt.....now! ::clicky:: "Compiling..." - look at that, no errors. ::runs program:: and hey, look at that! It runs!

Sure, there are specific functions you can use for WinAPI file I/O, but they're not particularly neccesary.

Of course, that was just an example to show you the file I/O aspect of it. The cout and main() won't compile in a windows program, if that's what you meant.
