appending to a text file from asp
gchristy | Posted 7:08pm 24. November 2007 Server Time |

I am trying to append a text file from the following code.  The code works okay but I need each new entry to begin at another line.  At present the code appends at the end of the previous text.  I would like for it to complet the two entries on the same line, then start a new line for each following entry. Can someone give me a push in the right direction?

<%
function WriteToFile(FileName, Contents, Append)
on error resume next

if Append = true then
   iMode = 8
else
   iMode = 2
end if
set oFs = server.createobject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
set oTextFile = oFs.OpenTextFile(FileName, iMode, True)
oTextFile.Write Contents
oTextFile.Close
set oTextFile = nothing
set oFS = nothing

end function

%>

<HTML>
<BODY>
<%ststime= now%>
<%ename="greg"%>

<%WriteToFile "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Oncall\log.txt", ststime , True%>
<%WriteToFile "C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Oncall\log.txt", ename , True%>

Write to File test is complete
</BODY>
</HTML>

Add up a leading line feed and/or carriage return to 'Contents' before appending. See here:
