Visual Basic - Writing to a File

Hello,

I am a beginner in Visual Basic and I would like to know how to save data (a name for example) to a text file.

Thank you in advance for your help.
Configuration: Windows Vista Internet Explorer 7.0

  1. Hello Polux31,

    Thank you, it works!

    Are there possibilities to write in a specific place?
    For example: Write at the beginning of the file, or at the end, etc.

    For those who are interested, I noticed that Print() simply writes the text, Printline() writes the text and goes to the next line.

    Best regards,
    Bilow.

    1. Hello,

      The isolated neuron would need to do an update ... ^^

      Sub writeFile() Dim fp As Short Dim path As String fp = FreeFile path = "D:\file_Test.txt" FileOpen(fp, path, OpenMode.Append) PrintLine(fp, " Hello ") FileClose(fp) End Sub


      There you go ...

      ;o)

      1. Hello,

        thank you for responding so quickly :)
        but... that doesn't work.

        The compiler displays a lot of errors, such as "open is undeclared."

        Thank you for your help.

        1. Hello

          There is a good chance that even the old methods are still operational:

          open "file.txt" for output as #3 ' the # is optional
          print #3, "georges"
          close #3
          (c) 1979 - mathusalem

          * the number (here 3) is chosen by you. It's the file handle (basic handle, of course)
          * the mode (here output) defines the authorized operations. You can use input to read the file, append to add data at the end, but not input/output because you can't read & write simultaneously in a text file (that's reserved for files with direct access)

          1. Hi progggg,

            Yes, under Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 (c).
            Does the editor software (IDE) change anything in the code?
