>The STRTOFILE command can be used repetitively in the FoxPro interactive mode to write line after line to a file. When the program is built into an executable the first STRTOFILE writes to the file and subsequent ones are ignored. Anyone know why this happens?

I saw you left a message to this effect yesterday, but I've never had that problem. I use FILETOSTR & STRTOFILE extensively without a hitch.

If it works the first time, but then fails on subsequent times why don't you try just building a large string and doing the STRTOFILE() once?
