What does a hash do to a variable in VB?

Question

I have to refactor a VB6 program to C# and am stuck at understanding the following lines:

Set myFileSystemObject = New FileSystemObject
Set myTextStream = myFile         


        

Answer 1

Print #iFileNumber, myTextStream.ReadAll

While trying to understand this myself, I came across this site that has a section on printing to a printer. They say #some_integer indicates a channel number:

A channel number is any integer value between 0 and 999, preceded by a pound sign (#); it indi- cates a specific channel to a device.

A channel is a connection between your program and an input or output device, such as a printer or a file.
