Hello i just wonderin if someone can help me here! i am writing a lord igm 
nd
i made a scribble wall . I wantd to make it where the sysop could resest the
wall just by deleting the barbwall.txt (the wall file) and when the igm was
ran it would detect the file wasnt there and would write it and i did so and 
it
seem to work. But when i tried to compile it! It woudnt let me . I found out
the problem i put the code bellow in a sub and for somereason it cannot write
the ansi stuff to a file while in a sub. I could take the stuff away and it
would work. So what is a beter way to write the file in a beter way then 
below?
barbwall$ = "barbwall.txt"
OPEN barbwall$ FOR APPEND AS #1
PRINT #1, "  Barber:"
PRINT #1, "  Hey everyone, the barbershop is now open!"
PRINT #1, "  old Woman:"
PRINT #1, "  Great!  Long as you do not turn my head into a mop!"
PRINT #1, "  Fat Man:"
PRINT #1, "  Haha... You too?"
PRINT #1, "  Old Woman:"
PRINT #1, "  Yes my boy."
PRINT #1, "  Barber:"
PRINT #1, "  I have my good day and my bad days!"
PRINT #1, "  Fat Guy:"
PRINT #1, "  No kidding, last time I left here I had no head."
PRINT #1, "  Old Woman:"
PRINT #1, "  You sure looked fine to me sweetie!"
PRINT #1, "  Fat Guy:"
PRINT #1, "  Shutup you slut! You like any male that walks!"
PRINT #1, "  Barber:"
PRINT #1, "  Well now we do not need to get into all that!"
