RE: [Talk] Appending to an output file

Hi there. I've had success with this.  Change the Output to Append.  It adds to the file instead of overwrites it.   Open “c:\testfile.txt” for Append as #2     Linda Ralston Applications Analyst Information Management Peace Country Health Grande Prairie, AB  Canada 780.538.7135 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Ross Stolle Sent: Monday, October 25, 2004 11:06 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: [Talk] Appending to an output file Hello all,   Whenever I do a script, I usually write the output to a file by using the commands…   First I open the field   Open “c:\testfile.txt” for Output as #2   Then at the end of each loop in my script, I write output like…               Write #2, field 1, field 2, etc….   When the script is done, I have a nice output file to view.  I know everyone does this, but I was wondering if anyone has ever opened up an existing file and appended data to it.  So, I’m wanting to keep a data file that adds onto itself every day I run the script.  Instead of “Write #2” is there another command, like “Append”?  Thanks!   Ross Stolle Integration Engineer Avera McKennan Hospital Sioux Falls, SD     ____________________ Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
