Hello,
I have a Pushbutton named Export, which,when clicked, I would like
it to export data (EF1.text, EF2.text, EF3.text, EF4.text) from
some chosen editfields (EF1, EF2, EF3, EF4) to a new text file on
the desktop.
Not Save or SaveAs like when the whole document is saved.
How is that done?
Assuming these are single line editfields and that an EndOfLine
separator is adequate:
Dim f As FolderItem
Dim tOS As TextOutputStream
f=DesktopFolder.Child("[your file name here]")
tOS=f.CreateTextFile
tOS.WriteLine EF1.Text
tOS.WriteLine EF2.Text
tOS.WriteLine EF3.Text
tOS.WriteLine EF4.Text
tOS.Close
To read this back into the editfields:
Dim f As FolderItem
Dim tIS As TextInputStream
f=DesktopFolder.Child("[your file name here]")
tIS=f.OpenAsTextFile
EF1.Text=tIS.ReadLine
EF2.Text=tIS.ReadLine
EF3.Text=tIS.ReadLine
EF4.Text=tIS.ReadLine
tIS.Close
