Ross, I tend to solve this problem by setting up form level Read, Write
properties that handle writing to the text box. ie:
Property myProperty : String Read GetmyProperty Write SetmyProperty;
myForm.SetmyProperty(Value : String);
Begin
myTextbox.text := Value;
end;
Your code example then becomes:
Readln(MyTextfile, myProperty);
Hope this helps.
Regards.

Subject: [DUG]: TEdit.Text
I'm finding it a hassle that I can't pass TEdit.Text strings as Var
parameters in procedures, and can't specify them in readln commands.
With Var parameters, I receive the compiler error "Constant Object
cannot be passed as a var parameter.
With Readln(MyTextfile, MyEdit.Text), I receive the compiler error "Left
side cannot be assigned to".
Is there anyway around these problems or am I stuck with using string
variables and assigning the Text field from the string?
Cheers,
Ross.
