I would like to see that AI would be able to open .txt files from tinyDB like it opens .jpg files. #759

This form is only for reporting bugs in App Inventor.   Do not use it for
reporting problems with connecting to the phone or opening the Blocks

- Steps to reproduce the problem.
- What happened.
- What you think the correct behavior should be.

Attach any material you think would be relevant to diagnosing the problem,
such as:
-  The source of your app: use "download to computer" to get the source zip
file
-  A screen shot

Don't forget to mention which device you have, and which version of Android
is installed on it.  (Find it under Home > Menu > Settings > About

Mistake and I can't edit the text above. :(

Anyway, to explain a bit. I have few .txt files that I would like to see appear 
inside a label. At the moment the only way to do it is to write text into the 
block. I wish that AI would know how to open .txt file and paste the text into 
the label.

Adding to wish list .doc and .pdf formats. Or whatever format that includes 
text that I can manipulate. Thanks :)
