I tried

Filewrite($file,"{enter}")

But when I open the $file,, I dont see a new line but get {enter} as text data..

If you use Chr(10) instead of {enter}, it should work.

Filewrite($file,Chr(10))

Chr() allows you to send ascii characters, and 10 is the ascii for a line feed.

Interesting note: We both joined the same year, almost 2 months apart, and have the same number of posts at this time

Filewrite($file,@crlf)

-or-

Filewriteline($file,"")

Use Jos' example. Didn't think of a simple @CRLF.

FileWrite($sFile,@CRLF)

this is not really the standard for Windows files as they use CR+LF.....

$file = FileOpen("test.txt", 2)
FileWrite($file, "Line1")
FileWrite($file, "Still Line1" & @CRLF)
FileWrite($file, "Line2")
FileClose($file)

OR

$CRLF = Chr(13) & Chr(10)
$file = FileOpen("test2.txt", 2)
FileWrite($file, "Line1")
FileWrite($file, "Still Line1" & $CRLF)
FileWrite($file, "Line2")
FileClose($file)
