[This documentation is for preview only, and is subject to change in later releases. Blank topics are included as placeholders.]

This sample shows how to create an application that opens multiple files and counts each file's bytes, characters, words, and lines. The results from each file and the total of all files are displayed.

For information about using the samples, see the following topics:

To build the sample using the command prompt

  1. Open the Command Prompt window and navigate to one of the language-specific subdirectories under the WordCount directory. For information about required settings and the SDK Command Prompt, see How to: Set Sample Settings.

  2. Type msbuild WordCountCS.sln or msbuild WordCountVB.sln, depending on your choice of programming language.

To build the sample using Visual Studio

  1. Open Windows Explorer and navigate to one of the language-specific subdirectories under the WordCount directory.

  2. Double-click the WordCountCS.sln or WordCountVB.sln file, depending on your choice of programming language, to open the file in Visual Studio 2005.

  3. On the Build menu, click Build Solution.

To run the sample

  1. In the Command Prompt window, navigate to the subdirectory that contains the WordCount application.

  2. Type WordCount.exe [filename] at the command prompt to count the words in a file.

  3. The totals from each file are listed separately and the total of the results from all the files are displayed.
