CBuilder begginer...help

[larcrik]

hello. I'm a new user of CBuilder,..and I need some help.I want to read a file and work with lines, searching for a word.I want those lines to write them in a RichEdit box. How can I do that? (considering the fact that "istream" uses strings and RichEdit uses AnsiStrings?)

Rate your skill in the following
- reading a text file line by line into a std::string
- searching a std::string for a word
- creating a RichEdit box
- adding an AnsiString to the RichEdit box
- converting a std::string to an AnsiString

In other words, which is the part of the problem which has you stumped, and what have you tried so far?

I constantly use stream and strings. I simply use .c_str() to do the conversion back and forth.

Thank you Salem for your advice. I did all of the tasks except the last one. I just can't seem to convert the string into AnsiString after I read and find my word in that file.
I tried to modify my file until all I have to do is to load the file into the RichEditBox. But if I do that, I can't open the modified file.
