>>Hi,

>>The code writes a long string (it could be up to 200 or more characters) into a .txt file. The string is written to the .txt file using strtofile() function. I would like the long string to be indented by, say 10 characters. I can indent the first line, by adding a space(10). But the rest of the string go to the 1st column,

AFAIK there's no such function.
