All Methods
FileSystemObject Object
METHOD: FileSystemObject.CreateTextFile
Implemented in version 2.0
o
bject.
CreateTextFile
filename [, overwrite[, unicode]]
This method is used to create a text file and returns a
TextStreamObject
that can then be used to write to and read from the file.
The optional
overwrite
parameter returns a Boolean value -
True
(the default) permits overwriting of existing files while
False
does not. The other optional parameter,
unicode
, is also a Boolean. In this case,
True
creates a Unicode file and
False
(the default) creates an AscII file.
Code:
<%
dim filesys, filetxt, getname, path
Set filesys = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set filetxt = filesys.CreateTextFile("c:\somefile.txt", True)
path = filesys.GetAbsolutePathName("c:\somefile.txt")
getname = filesys.GetFileName(path)
filetxt.WriteLine("Your text goes here.")
filetxt.Close
If filesys.FileExists(path) Then
Response.Write ("Your file, '" & getname & "', has been created.")
End If
%>
Output:
"Your file, 'somefile.txt', has been created."
