Write to *.txt

[R@emdonck]

Hi,

In this function I can write a string in a *.TXT file.
But the text appears always on top of the file. So when I write for the 2nd time, I automaticly overwrite the previous written string with the new string.
How can I write the next string to the next empty line of my *.TXT file?

Thanks


THE CODE:

Call WriteFile("c:\MyWriteFile\Test.txt", Now())

Function WriteFile(FileName as string, Contents as string)

Dim i as Integer
i = FreeFile

Open FileName for Output as #i

print #i, Contents
Close #i

End Function

you need to open the file in append mode:

Open FileName for append as i

opening in append mode will add to your file while output mode will basically recreate your file each time by writing over all your data
