send form details to notepad.

[antonyx]

hi there..

i would like to have a button on my form.

when you click this button, notepad opens.. and text is sent from the form to the notepad file.

eg..

i would need to know the syntax for sending a value in my form (txtname)..

free text.. and line breaks.. thats it..

so i might want something like this..

Send

txtName (linebreak)
Pickup Time: txtTime

can this be done?

yes - this can be done .

 

[antonyx]

just as i suspected..

can you shed some light on how it can be done?

 

[GaryPanic]

only bits of it
Chr(13) & Chr(10)
will give you line break and carrage return
you need to have output to - check on the help file on either output to or transferto

it gives a reasonable clear example (from memory) - failing that - whatever the key word is - transfer to - put it int h esearch and see what pops up ...
I got one going into xls - but thats a rather complicated coding - must be easier ones

does anyone know how to do this??

i can find anythin on the net, i found the Output to Notepad option you can add to the toolbar.. but that outputs too much other stuff..

i just want to send specific values and text..

anyone?
