Hi,
How do you write the contents of a Memo to a file and read back into a
Memo?
Memo1.Lines.SaveToFile
Memo1.Lines.LoadFromFile
I tried the following line but I just get an error message :-
Call.pas(87,17) Error: Illegal qualifier
MemoCallNote.Lines.SaveToFile ('/home/paul/tmpinfo/MyTempFile.txt');
Another thing how can I find out legal qualifiers i.e. Memo.Clear ,
Memo.Text (both illegal). What is legal?
Type Memo. then press ctrl-space, then identifier completion will show
you legal qualifiers.
I didn't fine .Lines.SaveToFile?
You can also go to the declaration of the tmemo (using alt-up) and see
the source code to inspect the properties/methods/functions but as
you'll see TMemo descends from TCustomMemo, probably inheriting some
properties etc, and the inheritance tree goes on up.
Finally, built in help is a nice aid: with your cursor on TMemo, press
F1 and you'll see properties and methods that are available.
I don't think my built in help is working, F1 does nothing.
How do I enable built in help?
Thank you to all who responded
Paul
