Using Input in a Filename

[dave123122]

I'm creating a time stamp program with 20 buttons and a start and stop button. I use the "open "?.txt" for ? as #?" statment to place the time into a txt file. My problem is that I'm not quite sure how to use input in a filename. Is it even possible? Do I need to create a form with an input box? Can i just use the InputBox fuunction?

Welcome to the forums.

I've always found the Input box to be a little annoying. I perfer a textbox, so I'll use that as an example:

Open "c:\" & Text1.Text & ".txt" For Append As #1
'do stuff
Close #1

Now, just type something into the textbox and a file will be created with that name.

This is just a quick example. Modify to suit your individual needs.
