I was tring to make itwork so that the string variable$ would save to a file on my computer and then load it into loaded$however it will not work.

[/code]
IF (file exist("E:\ Saved stuff\1\1"))=0
MAKE FILE "E:\ Saved stuff\1\1"
ENDIF

do
CLS

if shiftkey()=1
input ">",variable$
open to write 1,"E:\ Saved stuff\1\1"
write string 1,variable$
close file 1
GOTO HELLO
endif
LOOP

HELLO:
DO
CLS

open to read 2,"E:\ Saved stuff\1\1"
read string 2,loaded$
close file 2

print
print "VARIABLE = ",variable$
print
print "LOADED = ",loaded$

loop
[code]

DarkBasic won't open a file to write if it already exists. Before you write it, you need to check if it exists and if so, delete it. Also, you have an infinite loop after HELLO:

The path has to exist too, else it won't work.

Have a gander at this (edited to actually make it work ):


It saves directly to E:, so you'll have to adjust to suit your program.

I've got a question: Why, oh why does everybody put a "/" all over the place in their code!? How do they not notice it won't run? Not this, but people write things like this:

print /"/Hello"

It seems to be the configuration of some people's browsers that adds them in.
