 Today I was having trouble with a simple text file receiving 3 characters at the beginning of the file. After checking to make sure none of my output strings contained the characters, I started checking the methods use to write the file. Sure enough, I had forgotten to change the default encoding (Encoding.UTF8) to Encoding.ASCII. After changing my method parameters, the file came out clean and ready to use.
Example code:
My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText("c:\myfile.csv", content.ToString, False, System.Text.Encoding.ASCII)
