this-is-me Posted September 26, 2004 Share Posted September 26, 2004 I bet if you search for the word "Append" in the helpfile you will find it... Who else would I be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t0ddie Posted September 26, 2004 Author Share Posted September 26, 2004 this-is-me, nope larry, yup $file = FileOpen("test.txt", 0) If $file = -1 Then MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open file.") Exit EndIf FileWriteLine (test.txt, "hello" ) FileClose($file) that should do it. thanks Valik Note Added 19 October 2006 - 08:38 AMAdded to warn level I just plain don't like you.

CyberSlug Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 Search for "Library Function Reference: File.au3" in the help file. Functions that begin with the underscore character are user-defined functions, and many of these come with AutoIt when installed (typically located at "C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\Include") Function: _FileAppend( $sFilePath, $sText ) Description: Appends the specified text to a file. Syntax: _FileAppend( $sFilePath, $sText ) Parameter(s): $sFilePath - Path and filename to the file $sText - Text to be appended to the file Requirement(s): None Return Value(s): On Success - Returns 1 On Failure - Returns 0 and sets: @error = 1: Error opening specified file @error = 2: File could not be written to Author(s): Brian Keene <brian_keene@yahoo.com> Note(s): If the text to be appended does NOT end in @CR or @LF then a DOS linefeed (@CRLF) will be automatically added.

MHz Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 I bet if you search for the word "Append" in the helpfile you will find it...Some good advice from this-is-me. I get in help guide: Functions Function FileOpen Function FileWrite Function FileWriteLine Most of the commands needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t0ddie Posted September 27, 2004 Author Share Posted September 27, 2004 hello i put this script on my desktop along with TEST.txt and it works perfectly $bak = ClipGet() $file = FileOpen("TEST.txt", 0) If $file = -1 Then MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open file.") Exit EndIf FileWriteLine("TEST.txt", $bak ) FileClose($file) but when i use it in my script, it gives me the error MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open file.") i have the script and the .txt file in the same directory. i dont know whats wrong.. do i need to post the whole script?

ZeDMIN Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 hiya, try this: $bak = ClipGet() $file = FileOpen(@ScriptDir & "\TEST.txt", 1) If $file = -1 Then MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open file.") Exit EndIf FileWriteLine($file, $bak) FileClose($file) Btw: If you don't use FileOpen with parameter "1" and "$file" in your FileWriteLine, then you wouldn't need FileOpen-FileClose at all. See help-file on FileWriteLine: If a filename is given rather than a file handle, the file will be opened and closed during the function call. For parsing large text files this will be much slower than using filehandles. However, filename will be created if it does not already exist.Greetings, ZeD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t0ddie Posted September 27, 2004 Author Share Posted September 27, 2004 greetings zed thanks. that was most easy to correct. Valik Note Added 19 October 2006 - 08:38 AMAdded to warn level I just plain don't like you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
