[RESOLVED] Ways to Create a Text File

Guys, what are the different ways of creating a sequential or text file? Thanks a lot!

Example..

VB Code:

'Put data into File
Dim Data As String
Data = "Whatever"
Open "C:\YourFile.txt" For Output As #1
    Print#1, Data
Close #1
 
'Get data from file
Dim tmp As String
Open "C:\YourFile.txt" For Input As #1
    Do While Not EOF(1)
        Line Input#1, tmp
    Loop
Close #1

Or, using File System Object (add reference to: Microsoft Scripting Runtime)

VB Code:

Dim Mfso As Scripting.FileSystemObject 'Should be declared modular
Dim Tstr As TextStream
 
    Set Mfso = New Scripting.FileSystemObject
    Set Tstr = Mfso.CreateTextFile("C:\MyFile.txt", True) 'True = Overwrite
    Tstr.Write ("Hi!")
    Tstr.WriteBlankLines (1)
    Tstr.WriteLine ("How are you?")
    Tstr.Close
    Set Tstr = Nothing
    Set Mfso = Nothing 'Could be released when unloading form, not sure if its necessary
