Okay, heres's the thing. I am making a game similar to a cross between Final Fantasy VIII and Zelda Majora's Mask. I need a function that can save and load data.
Here are the specs - you have 20 items and you can only save at save spots. On top of the twenty items you can also collect 50 magic stones. If you have any questions don't be afraid to ask.
P.S. all i can do so far is write to an open file and read an open file but i cant save items according to their slots and i can't save the stones.

I'm having a bit of trouble trying to get to grips with this too, maybe this'll help: -

EDIT: I saved the wrong link in my favourites!

Sorry, I can't remember which thread that helped me out!
