View Full Version : Writing the contents of an Edit Box to a file.
DaveWortley 05 May 2008, 09:40 AM I've got a EditBox with some text in and I want to write this to a text file.
But if I had something like
This
Is
My
Text
It writes it to the file as
ThisisMyText
I'm currently using BinStream to write it to the file as StringStream puts in quotation marks either side.
"ThisisMyText" and I don't need them in the text file.

i'm guessing you're using:
print (myStringstream as string) to:myFile
instead of
format (myStringstream as string) to:myFile
using format will not put the "" around the string.
As for your multi line string problem, could that be because you are using binstream? I've never used a binstream before so i can't be certain of that.
If not, another solution comes to mind:
parse your multiline string by using something like:
myStringArray = filterstring myMultiLineString "\n"
and then
for s in myStringArray do format "%\n" s to:myFile
