starting a new line: yes another text file question: ANother one resolved!

[evexa]

this piece of code makes a line in a text file BUT - the user has to put in more than one line (probably about 20) so how would i get it to add a new line each time they press the same button?

Any insight greatly appreciated

*Sigh* nobody ever expects it :P most greeks living in the US say Parakalo smash a plate and call themselves greek *ptoo*.
Although i must say my greek is getting worse and worse!

And no - print just writes over it

Open "e:/corporate/mla/vb/text2.txt" For Append As #1
Print #1, Text1(4).Text & ", " & Text1(0).Text & ". " & Text1(1).Text & " " & Text1(3).Text & ":" & Text1(2) & "."
Close #1



I changed the file type to APPEND
if you open it for output..it will start a new file....append will add to it

also..your SLASHES are backwards e:\etc...\etc...
you have them like a URL
