Listbox to Text File

[markstaylor]

Sorry I know this has been answered before but I can't seem to find it.

I am simply trying to save the data in a listbox to a textfile when exiting the app.

Thanks

Hi,
you can do it with this code. Replace "lbox" with the name of your Listbox object. In line 4 you can define the path and name of the textfile.

if ListBox.GetCount("lbox") ~= -1 then
	-- no error, beginn to read Listbox items
	index = 1; -- start ist Itemindex "1"
	file = _TempFolder.."\\test.txt" -- path to textfile
	repeat
		TextFile.WriteFromString(file, ListBox.GetItemText("lbox", index).."\r\n",true);
		index = index + 1;
	until index > ListBox.GetCount("lbox")
end

have a nice day, Tjin
