Hi every one,

I have some problem to write and read text file using asp.
I used this code below which is got from this web site. When i run it, it does not show any error. But There is no text file created in C Drive.

what is the error here, please let me know?

...................................................................
<%
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>

<%

WriteToFile "C:\Test1.txt", "Hello How are you", True
WriteToFile "C:\Test2.txt", "Hello How are you", false
WriteToFile "C:\Test1.txt", chr(13) & chr(10) & "I am fine", true
WriteToFile "C:\Test2.txt", chr(13) & chr(10) & "I am fine", false
'Test1.txt contains:
'Hello How are you
'I am fine

'Test2.text contains:

'I am fine
%>
Write to File test is complete
</BODY>
</HTML>

I would comment out the line "on error resume next" and then load the page. I would be willing to bet you get an error, probably a permissions error.

I am seeking whatever correction to be solved.

I don't think I understand your response. Do you encounter an error after removing the line "on error resume next"?

Unless you remove this line of code no runtime errors will be raised. The code will simply resume after an error and you will never know whether an error has occurred.
