I did figure out how to get to writing and reading files on ios, but on my second app it does not work. I still can't figure out how to print from inside ios on the iPad 2. I think maybe it can't be done yet. I forgot to tell you my results. I get nothing in the variable it or the variable results Following is my code snippets for files: ************** --write getPathsFromFile put specialfolderpath("documents") into temppath set defaultfolder to temppath put temppath&"/Defaults" into newtempath set defaultfolder to newtempath put the hilitedlines of cd fld "GroupThemeTitles" into grpCount put "StudentsGroup"&grpCount into temp1 open file temp1 for write write cd fld "Students" to file temp1 close file temp1 -- read put specialfolderpath("documents") into temppath set defaultfolder to temppath put temppath&"/Defaults" into newtempath set defaultfolder to newtempath put the hilitedlines of me into newgroup put "StudentsGroup"&newgroup into temp1 open file temp1 for read read from file temp1 until eof put it into cd fld "Students" put the number of lines in it into studentcount close file temp1 **************
