  • Problem with saving data in PBDLL

    I have bravely started using PBDLL6 and am not finding it that
    difficult.

    However, I am having a problem saving data from text boxes to a
    disk file.

    Is there someone who would accept my code by email and let me
    know what I am doing wrong?

    Regards,
    Brian

    Hello,

    I'm no expert, but I have been playing with PB for a couple of months. I can have a look for you.

      If you are using DDT, then use CONTROL GET TEXT to retrieve the text into a string.

      If you are using API/SDK techniques, then use the GetWindowText() API to retrieve the text.

      Finally, write the text to a file using standard file techniques, for example:
      Code:
      ' Psuedo code - lets assume a$ contains the text from the edit control
      x& = FREEFILE
      OPEN "MYFILE.DAT" FOR OUTPUT AS #x&
      PRINT #x&, a$
      CLOSE #x&
