Im trying but i need some help! because i still cant get this to work

You might want to post this in a C/C++ board. The code above isn't C# style. R.Bischoff | C++   .NET, Kommst du mit?

I really don't have the time to go through your code right now. But if it were my project I would simply put the contents of your text file in a CString variable and use the CString::GetLength() fn to get the character count and use the CString::Find(..) fn in a loop counting the spaces to get the word count.
