Thanks Peter. That was it. ----- Original Message ----- From: Peter H.

Anyone able to help? If the line really has constants as arguments to R2S() and I2S() then the whole thing can be one string: WriteLine(keyfile, '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>') If you will be using variables then, as Dave Twehues indicated, you can use Format() to format the resulting strings. For integers, for example, if you had a numeric ZIP Code and wanted five digits with leading zeros, you could do something like this: Format(zip,'00000') R2S() creates the simplest string version of the real number that you pass it. Since 1.0 is a whole number, R2S(1.0) returns "1" as the string. To get one decimal point, use something like this: Format(version,'*.0') The on-line help topic "String Functions" summarizes those functions.
