Hacker News Reader

A little known secret is that in the VB namespace in .NET full fat, there is a really nice CSV file reader/writer.

My colleague showed me this a couple weeks ago, which makes me laugh even more when I think back to all the CSV parsers I saw in VB.NET in past gigs.

I'll admit, I'd written more than one in C# myself before I discovered FileHelpers.

I think I've written some CSV parsers until I thought to myself "I can't believe they don't have this in .NET".
