var fs=require('fs');

 fs.exists(nodemongo.txt,function(exists){ 

if(exists)

{

fs.stat(nodemongo.txt,function(error,stats){

fs.open(nodemongo.txt,function(error,ab)

{

var bf=new Buffer(stats.size);

fs.read(ab,bf,0,bf.length,null,function(error,bytesRead,buffer){

var txt=bf.toString("utf8",0,bf.length);
