Hi folks,

I have a .dat file (Bible verse) with the verses indexed according to date. It works in Linux environment. On clicking the program it popup the verse of the day corresponding to the date of computer. It'll repeat in following years.

Now I want to use the .dat file on Windows XP/Vista. So that after booting up the OS and login the verse of the day will be displayed on the screen. Please advise how to do it. TIA

If this is not for C# please advise where shall I post my request?

B.R.

Create C# win application. Write code to read data file and display appropriate text (verse) according to current date. Build your project and create a shortcut of executable (assembly) in startup menu item.
