saving text to file

[mikledet]

Hi All,

A newbee here - i am trying to save text I am reading from file A to file B.
However, the file is saved with the quotation marks like that: "line text" <--- this is what i get when i open the file with notepad.
I tried triming the sides of the string, but the quotation marks are still there - but fewer "real" character from the line (1 on each side of the line)...

How can I write text to a file, and not have the quotation marks?

this is my code:

Open txtSource.Text For Input As #1 'the text box holds the path
Open txtTarget.Text For Output As #2

Do While Not EOF(1)
Line Input #1, read_line
Write #2, read_line
Loop


Thanks in advance

Dani.

Use the Print command instead of Write.
Something like

Print #filenumber,outputlist

Go to Help and look up the "Print # Statement" for an explanation and example
