Hi , is it possible to set the font size for a file you open for output.
When i am creating files they are opend with wordpad and the font is set to 10.
I would like the fontsize be set to 8 for the lines i insert into the file, can this be done from code ??
Advanced thanks
use "Rich Text" format, then you can set things such as font
How can i use this , when i fill a file with strings ??
I have to create files through code and these are sent to a client, this client can work wiht these files except for one file this ones font is to big to have the lines in one line.
These files are made with the open for output statement.
When i open them in wordpad or notepad the fontsize is 10
Can these files be created with a fontsize of 8 ??
Someone ??
Text files (.txt) have NO formatting, and there is nothing you can do about it. As phinds said, use Richtext (RTF).
It's a simple file format, to find out what you need to put into the file just create a document in Word that has the formatting you need, save it as Rich-text (.rtf), then open the file in notepad to see what you need to add to get the formating you want.
I don't give the txt extension to the file it is made with the .dat extension can this be a problem ??
yes, ".dat" is used for lots of different things.. go for rtf, using the method i said before to find the file format.
