Pete,

create cursor temp (cLine c(80))
append from TheFile.txt type sdf
insert your text as a record
copy to TheFile.txt type sdf

You may need a scan loop and a second cursor to actually insert the row you want. But that code works very fast.

You can also use a memo:
create cursor temp (mText m)
append blank
append memo mText from TheFile.txt
modify the memo
copy memo mText to TheFile.txt
