Text Files in Delphi - Writing to a text file

[@werty2]

A moment of silence for all those kids who haven't found this channel. You literally saved IT for me from Grade 10 - 12. You are an absolute legend Mr Long.

[@sticc3978]

I just found it 1 year before the big exams

[@mirvids5036]

I do like the simple way you explain what you're doing. Very easy to follow and it makes sense.

Hello mr long I have a practical where I should write into a textfile only writing 1 letter form an editbox per line , how would I be able to do this ?

[@MrLongITandCAT]

Lets say the editbox is called edtData then something like this: sLine := edtData.Text ; AssignFile( myFile, 'TextFileName.txt' ) ; //text file details Rewrite( myfile ) ; //here is the important code for i := 1 to length( sLine ) do writeln( sLine[ i ] ) ; //take each character and write it individally before moving to next line CloseFile( myfile ) ;

[@l0stguy]

@@MrLongITandCAT Thanks lot's !! Would I be able to use an array to put data back into editbox line for line ?

[@MrLongITandCAT]

@@l0stguy For multiple lines it would be better to use a memo control or a rich edit control. If you go to our videos tab, you will find a video explaining how they work if you haven't used them before.

[@Double.M.101]

@@MrLongITandCAT Hi Mr long I want user's to insert their names into the edit box and it must save to the text file , how would I be able to do so ?

[@MrLongITandCAT]

@@Double.M.101 Must it save the name INTO the text file or as the name of the textfile.

You are the G ❤

[@dashcamwhat1512]

How can you make a textfile appear instead of using richedit or memo to display the information from the textfile?

[@MrLongITandCAT]

Do you want to open the Text file?

Thank you sir.

thank u

[@AnaAna-gu3jk]

Sorry but how do you write to a textfile using a richedit???

[@MrLongITandCAT]

richedit1.lines.savetofile( 'filename.txt' ) ;

[@MrLongITandCAT]

or if you need to do it via code: AssignFile( myfile , 'filename.txt'); Rewrite( myfile ); for i := 0 to RichEdit1.Lines.Count -1 do begin Write( myfile , RichEdit1.Lines.Strings[i]); end;

[@darkflash9729]

Thanks
