FileWrite

FileWrite($2 & ".txt", $3)

The file is written to my desktop, but I want it written into a folder on my desktop. I tried to do the following, but it didn't work.

FileWrite("C:\Documents and Settings\NAME\Desktop\FOLDER\"$2 & ".txt", $3)

Is there a way to customize the directory for the file to be written to?

Thanks for any help.

FileWrite("C:\Documents and Settings\NAME\Desktop\FOLDER\"& $2 & ".txt", $3)

It works, but using $2 or $3 are horrible variable names, as I have know idea what they represent. $filename and $line have more meaning.

Awesome thank you for your help! I also have another question now, if I wanted to label a file name with the current time using the (F5) button, would it simply be...

FileWrite("C:\Documents and Settings\NAME\Desktop\FOLDER\"&(F5) & ".txt", $line)

I know its possible in Send() commands because I do remember reading it in the help file, but I don't know how you can encorporate it into other things, I know about the @MDAY, @HOUR etc, but that just seems sloppy because 12 is 00, and its like navy time.

Once again, thank you for any help.

Simply minus 12 hours off the Hour. Example Function

Func _12Hour_Time()
   $24 = @Hour - 12
   $Time = $24 & ":" & @Min & ":" & @Sec
   Return $Time
EndFunc

Example script.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("My GUI")

$test = GUICtrlCreateLabel (_12Hour_Time(),  10, 30, 50)

GUISetState ()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    GUICtrlSetData ($test,_12Hour_Time())
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
Wend

Func _12Hour_Time()
   $24 = @Hour - 12
   $Time = $24 & ":" & @Min & ":" & @Sec
   Return $Time
EndFunc
