I have to create a txt file so with some large content in VB6. Can anybody help me out on this and please tell me the references also.
how large?
to keep it simple:
'1 form with:
' 1 textbox: name=Text1
' 1 command button: name=Command1
Option Explicit
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim intFile As Integer
Dim strFile As String
strFile = "c:\temp\file.txt" 'the file you want to save to
intFile = FreeFile
Open strFile For Output As #intFile
Print #intFile, Text1.Text 'the data you want to save
Close #intFile
End Sub
this will replace the file each time you click the command button, if you want to add to the file then you can open "for append" instead of "for output"
