Help Please - Should Be Simple, But...


Recommended Posts

Hi there!

I just need to write a new text line in existing file (can be *.txt) in a specific line, without "touching" other lines content... I tried everything I know, but nothing... Where I go wrong???

Thanks in advance!

FileWriteLine() is exactly what is needed...

$file = FileOpen("test.txt", 1)
;Mode (read or write) to open the file in.
;Can be a combination of the following:
;  0 = Read mode
;  1 = Write mode (append to end of file)
;  2 = Write mode (erase previous contents)
;  4 = Read raw mode
;  8 = Create directory structure if it doesn't exist (See Remarks).
;Both write modes will create the file if it does not already exist but a non;existent folder (except using mode '8' - See Remarks).

; Check if file opened for writing OK
If $file = -1 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open file.")
    Exit
EndIf

FileWriteLine($file, "Line1")

FileClose($file)

If you notice... FileOpen with a parameter of 1 allows the appendage of a file.

Hope this helps,

FileWriteLine can only append to the file wheras _FilWriteToLine will write to any specified line no.

His post asks for an append to the end of the file to my understanding.

Oh no... I just read where he said after he wants "I just need to write a new text line in existing file" that he wants "in a specific line".

My apologies :)
