Need Help with Output to Text - Visual Basic 4 / 5 / 6

Todd Shillam

Here's my script--need help with output to text file (must be missing
something here like closing the file or something). Any help would be
greatly appreciated here. Lastly, I'm using Visual Basic .NET 2003.
Source...

Dim vFileName As String
vFileName = Format(Now(), "MM - dd - yyyy") & " - " & vName
Dim oFile As System.IO.File
Dim oWrite As System.IO.Strea mWriter
oWrite = oFile.CreateTex t("C:\" & vFileName & ".txt")

FileOpen(1, "C:\" & vFileName & ".txt", OpenMode.Output ) 'CAN'T GET TEXT TO
WRITE TO FILE
oWrite.WriteLin e("Debugging Code is Fun")
oWrite.WriteLin e("And Pigs Fly")

This group is really for VB6 and earlier. I recommend you take a look at the
groups devoted exclusively to .net programming on the microsoft news server,
named such as:

news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...dotnet.general
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...t.languages.vb
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof....vsnet.general
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...studio.general
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof....vstudio.setup

.... etc.

Why does include file text need to be bracketed by <?php> ... <?>

by: Michael | last post by:

Since the include function is called from within a PHP script, why does the included file have to identify itself as a PHP again by enclosing its code in <?php... <?> One would assume that the PHP interpreter works like any other, that is, it first expands all the include files, and then parses the resulting text. Can anyone help with an explanation? Thanks, M. McDonnell

Why do we need XML Schemas other than for automatic validation?

Sorry for asking this beginner question. I've written DTDs so far and read about XML Schemas. I understand that they are a replacement of the DTD fundamentally, and therefore allow for the validation of an XML document. My question really is: Why do we need XML Schemas other than for validation of an XML document? I am more interested in knowing if already available
