Adding Save and load Capabilities

[michelleDub]

Hi,

I'm currently trying to add a Save and load Capability to a rather large application, each file for a save will require approximately 80 variables. I've been looking at writing each save to a file allowing the user to input a filename. I was looking at using a FileListBox to allow the user to select the file to be reloaded, then reassigning the variables. Just wondering if any of you had any suggestion as to better ways to do this.

Thanks in advance
Michelle

Michelle,

You can use a common dialog control to retrieve the file to load unless a user is limited to a specific file, which you could limit the options.

Use the file system object to save new files.
