Not sure if I understand, but it sounds like you just want to collect
text from several editfields and save this text to a text file. If so,
couldn't you do this...
Dim theText as string
theText = editfield1.text + endofline + endofline + editfield2.text +
endofline + endofline + editfield3.text (etc.)
Then write theText to a file.

G'day all
Terry requested another question, so here it is :-)
I have an EditField that I am saving to, and loading from, a text file.
I have the ability to save and load 'multi lines' with carriage
returns.
So far so good, all is functioning, but...
I want to save and load 'multi lines' using more than one EditField. I
can see how to save many 'single line' strings to one file but how can
I save many 'multi line' strings with one or many carriage returns from
many EditFileds to the same text file. I will use a database if
required but as there will only ever be one record this may be
overkill. Does this make sense?
The code I am using to load multi line text into one EditField is below:
Dim f As folderItem
Dim t As textInputStream
f = preferencesFolder.child("Notes")
if f <> nil then
if f.exists then
t = f.OpenAsTextFile
if t <> nil then
psNotesText = t.readAll
efMyNotes.Text = psNotesText
t.close
end if
end if
end if
RB 5.5.2, Mac OS X 10.3.4
