There's one old thing about Set Alternate - it adds a chr(26) to the end of file when closed, at last it did last time I used that.

And this last time was in whichever version of Fox was the last one without Textmerge. Much simpler:

set textmerge on to text.txt
for i=1 to alen(aLB)
   \<<alb[i]>>
endfor
set textmerge off
set textmerge to

Another way:

lcText=""
for i=1 to alen(aLB)
   lcText=lcText+alb[i]+chr(13)
endfor
strtofile(lcText, "text.txt")

and let's not forget LLFF (low level file functions)

h=fcreate("text.txt")
for i=1 to alen(aLB)
   fputs(h, alb[i])
endfor
fclose(h)

As it was said long ago, if it can't be done three ways in VFP, it
v1) can't be done at all
v2) isn't worth doing anyway
