Given a file, and we have to read text from the file and append the text in another file using C# program.

File.AppendAllText()

This is a method of "File" class, it is used to append given 'content' to the file which is specified by the 'path'.

Syntax:

void File.AppendAllText(path, content);

Parameters:

1. path - Filename with its location.
2. content - Text to be written into file.

Program:

using System;

//We need to include this namespace for file handling.
using System.IO;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main()
        {
            string s;

            Console.WriteLine("Content before append:");
            s = File.ReadAllText("ABC.TXT");
            Console.WriteLine(s);

            Console.WriteLine("Enter text to append into file:");
            s = Console.ReadLine();

            File.AppendAllText("ABC.TXT", s);

            Console.WriteLine("Content after append:");
            s = File.ReadAllText("ABC.TXT");
            Console.WriteLine(s);

        }
    }
}
