text file

[vlitim]

when i write a string to a textfile it gets put in with quotes around it, how do you get rid of these when reading the file line by line??

You could just go
left(stringname,1)
right(stringname,1)
after u read it.

If you use Print instead of Write, there will be no quotation marks. Otherwise, you could strip them out as in

text = replace(text,"""","&quot

This can happen if you are using

line input #1 <whatever>

instead of

input #1 <whatever>
