In C#, how can I create a TextReader object from a string (without writing to disk)

TextReader sr = new StringReader(TextBox_StartData.Text); using (CsvReader csv = new CsvReader(new StreamReader(sr), true)) { DetailsView1.DataSource = csv; DetailsView1.DataBind(); } The new StreamReader(sr) tells me it has some invalid arguments. Any ideas? new StreamReader(sr) As an alternate approach, I've tried this: TextReader sr = new StreamReader(TextBox_StartData.Text); us...
