well this error doesnt really affect the program but at the the top of page 439 the line
_stream = New FileStream("c:\finalizeDemo.txt",FileMode.OpenOrCr eate)
i think should be changed to
_stream = New FileStream(filename,FileMode.OpenOrCreate)
otherwise that filename variable is useless

//\\// //-\\ "||" ||-|| //-\\ //\\//

Did you get an error with what the book has? If so, what was the error?
