Create file with "FILE" Extensione BIG PROBLEM

[daniele]

Hello, you can create with the "FILE" file inside a specific directory in txt format and copy into it the contents of another txt file?
EXAMPLE
I have a project where it stores all the information of my objects and variables in an ini file (pippo.ini for example).
when I start the "save file as" I want to copy the content of this INI file "PIPPO" in the new file I created.
I tried many times but I could not find the solution.

I created a complex System that copies are clones and are the coordinates of any objects, but I wanted to create a save system equal all classical programs.

Please, you can create me a small example where a file is created in c:\?
this feature is very important to me.
Thanks

Use the Rich Edit object to load a text file, then append the text in the Rich Edit object to your file via the File extension.

thanks I tried and I managed to upload my values in the rich text. now I have to take those values and copy them to a new file, but I can not create this file. I tried to create it in a way, but I can not create any file. Could you help me with this shock following? I'm trying for several hours, maybe I can help with much earlier.

I now have everything in the project that has been stored in my file "ini" pippo.
second step:
I have to save this content into a new file that I must create and name with the extension "file"

Please could you do me a small example in MMF2?
Thanks for the time you have been very useful

If I understand correctly, a simple solution would be the File Object. Under "File Actions," go to "Copy a file" and add:

"C:\Your Path Name\pippo.ini"

As the first parameter. And:

"C:\Your Path Name\pippo.file"

As the second.

Hope that helps.

Use the Rich Edit object to load a text file, then append the text in the Rich Edit object to your file via the File extension.

RTF != TXT

thanks for your help.
Riuscitop have to create the save and load function with the load / save RTF Text via selector, but now I have a very big problem.

I save the contents of the rich edit object 'in a ini file and then load the content of this INI file but every time I save in this ini file is written to the rescue and not deleting and writing.

es

Save these parameters
SW1 = 1
SW2 = 1
SW3 = 1

when I go to re-save these values, this happens

SW1 = 1
SW2 = 1
SW3 = 1
SW1 = 1
SW2 = 1
SW3 = 1

you can erase the textual contents of the ini file?

Do what Jaffob said and do not use the Rich Edit Object for this. It is a bad idea to use the Rich Edit Object.

how do I create an. ini file in a specific directory?
I read that you need to write this before the name, but I tried and could not create this file.

help ini Add ".\" before the name
you can write the correct sequence to create an ini file in C: \?


Lastly, do I have to delete the contents of file.ini. I can only add written, but you can not clear all characters internal?

there is no app for this?
thanks

Yes, it can be done. But, I am not sure if you want to:
-copy a file?
-move a file?
-create an empty file?
-open a file, modify it, and save it somewhere else?

I just need a function that erases the events stored in the INI file I'm using.


Before you load all the values of the objects I have on my schedule for this INI file, first I have to remove its content not to have twice the usual rescue.

How do I delete the events stored in the INI file with MMF2?
I tried app "FILE" with the task of exchanging my INI with the values stored and replace that file with a new, empty, but nothing happens.

If that is possible to delete the contents of a file, I have solved my problem.

I believe in your support
