writing to a file

[yogi21]

hey

i want to write simple text data to a file. the only problem i have is that in the file all the inserted data is put in quotation marks. i used this code:

FileOpen(1, "c:\java\test1.bat", OpenMode.Output)

WriteLine(1, "@echo off")

WriteLine(1, "cd\")

WriteLine(1, "java -cp c:\java waveplay " + javastring)

WiteLine(1, "cd\")

FileClose(1)

The output is this:

"@echo off"

"cd\"

"java -cp c:\java waveplay "

"cd\"

 

what can i do that the quotation marks will not be stored.

thanx a lot

Use StreamWriter which is the correct .NET way of writing to files:

 

Dim writ as new IO.StreamWriter("pathtofile")
writ.WriteLine("whatever you wish to write")
writ.Flush()
writ.Close()

You should be using IO.StreamWriter in .NET

Just want to point out that if u werent using .NEt you could have used Print()

[Robby]

I'm quite convinced that he is using .NET :)

I know, ;) Just wanted to throw it out there.

And if he was using LOGO, he could use a series of movement and pen commands to get the turtle to draw the string on a piece of paper!

 

This is a .NET forum, LiquidEnforcer ;)

Err, doh...I know that. ;) But Since he was obviously using an older method I just thought Id say that if he used Print it wouldnt put the quotes. I mention this because before I got .NET I had the same problem and it was a frustrating thing.

 

*Hides* ;)
