Hello paulie420!

I should probably rewrite those, so they don't sound like they are just taking jabs at you. ;) I know how much you loved trying to work with files. :)

 pa> fAssign
This will assign the filename to the pointer variable. After this, you need to actually open the file using fReWrite, fReset, Append, etc.
 pa> fWrite
This writes the information to the file. You can also just use WriteLn or Write, with the file pointer variable. ie WriteLn(fptr,'This is some text')
 pa> fClose
Always want to close the file when your done with it. :)
