The TextFieldParser
Éric Moreau wrote an article about an interesting component that I didn’t know about (available since 2.0): the TextFieldParser. It provides methods and objects for parsing structured text files (i.e. .CSV).
Unfortunately, Microsoft included it in the Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll extension. Even though you can add this extension in C#, it is not really specific to VB.
