' Read the content of the text file
TextContent = File.ReadString(FilePath,"")

java.io.FileNotFoundException: /storage/emulated/0/bmsimport/balance.csv: open failed: EACCES (Permission denied)

TextContent = File.ReadString(FilePath,"")

ReadString has no file to read.
Where is the file located?
With a small example, we could probably correct this error.
