Put them in an array and SAVE ARRAY. This will also make them unreadable if you simply try to open it as a text file.

I will be posting my parameters file code within the next couple of days, you will be able to use the functions to retrieve the stuff using that.

Thanks in advance.
All the Best,

If you are using integers, it's pretty easy to do it without using an array

To write :



You can have as many writes as you want. To read back:



Easy! Just remember to read your values back in in the same order that you wrote them.

It's actually "Write Byte".



The same goes to reading the file.



To write or read strings, use the "Write/Read String" command.

if you want to use save array you could re-name the file in DB and change the file format to whatever you want.
