writing to txt file using _FileWriteToLine

[SenseEye]

Hello All, 

I am having some issues with the below script. I want to take a value from an input box and write it to a text file (stored in the same location named Config.txt).

 

Results: script runs however the text file does not get populated with the result from the input. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

#include <File.au3>

Global $sIniFile = @ScriptDir & "\" & "Config.txt"
MsgBox(1,"",$sIniFile) ;Test to see if $sIniFile is working - Comes back as expected 

Global $script1 = InputBox("Window Info", "Enter the name of your program identified using Auto Window Info")
_FileWriteToLine($sIniFile, 1, $script1, 1)

What error is returned by the _FileWriteToLine?

I'm not getting any errors on the console the script runs and finishes but does not add any info to the txt file. (I am new to this do I need to be running in a debug mode or is there a location where errors would be logged that is not set to the console window?)

And you made sure the file is not empty? Look in the help file for _FileWriteToLine, it must have at least as many lines as $iLine or it will fail. Try something like this:

#include <File.au3>

Global $sIniFile = @ScriptDir & "\" & "Config.txt"
MsgBox(1,"",$sIniFile) ;Test to see if $sIniFile is working - Comes back as expected

Global $script1 = InputBox("Window Info", "Enter the name of your program identified using Auto Window Info")
_FileWriteToLine($sIniFile, 1, $script1, 1)
    If @error Then ConsoleWrite(@error & @CRLF)

Then correlate the @error number with the help file.

Thank you jLogan3o13 thats fixed it I was trying to an empty file (opened the Config.txt added some content and it now works

Do you need it to be on a specific line? If you're just looking to append to the end of an existing file, try FileWriteLine instead.

I just need to write and read to the line at the moment but that's great for advice for future projects  thank you so much for your help
