USFile.Write

note

This article is about the Write method of the USFile internal component.

USFile.Write

Writes text to a file previously opened with the USFile.Open method in WRITE or APPEND mode.

Syntax

INVOKE USFile.Write WITH
SELECT    *alias*
,         *value*

The required and case-insensitive alias is the alias of the file to be closed. This alias must previously have been assigned to a file when the USFile.Open method was called. Alias is a regular name string that may or may not use the 'USFile.' prefix.

Value is a regular text string that may or may not contain whitespace.

• If USFile.Open was called in APPEND mode, value is appended to the existing contents of the file (if any).
• If USFile.Open was called in WRITE mode, value replaces the existing contents of the file (if any).

Example

INVOKE   USFile.Write WITH
SELECT   'USFile.ToursFile'
,        t.text
FROM     tour t
