I suggest you grab Black Panthers MPL lessons; they are available on 2o in the RCS Mystic Mods File Area...

If I remember correctly, file handling starts as Lesson 9 and is covered in the next 3 Lessons after that. He explains how to write to filename.txt first, and then goes on to show both reading, writing and handling text and binary files.

If I remember correctly, you have to OPEN, WRITE and CLOSE a file using:

fAssign
fWrite
fClose

There is a format in paranthesis after the commands, and while you're just asking to write ONE thing to a text, you can use variables so a user can give input, or you can pull data to write from... anywhere.

If you want to really understand file handling, I really suggest those 3 Lessons by BP.
