writeline overwrites my file, instead of appending [resolved]

[joeframbach]

i have a list of accounts in a txt file that goes like this:
username
password
username
password
...and so on.
if a user makes a new account, i want it to append to the end of the file.
here is the code:

Dim sw As StreamWriter = New StreamWriter("users.txt")
sw.Write(name)
sw.Write(pass)
sw.Close()

but the text only erases my file and writes the name and pass

try this :

Function SaveTextFile(ByVal FilePath As String, ByVal FileContent As String, _
    Optional ByVal Append As Boolean = False) As Boolean
 
    Dim sw As System.IO.StreamWriter
    Try
        sw = New System.IO.StreamWriter(FilePath, Append)
        sw.Write(FileContent)
        Return True
    Catch e As Exception
        Return False
    Finally 
        If Not sw Is Nothing Then sw.Close()
    End Try
End Function
