-=> Quoting David Williams to Sam Andrews <=-
DW> WRITE #1, A$; B$; C$
Atleast on my system, QB doesn't allow semi-commas in the write command,
it automaticaully changes them to commas(,). :>
DW> If a string contains a comma, for example:
DW> X$ = "Testing, testing"
DW> WRITE#1, X$ will put into the file:
DW> "Testing, testing"
DW> PRINT# will put:
DW> Testing, testing
DW> If the program that reads the file has the command:
DW> INPUT #1, Q$
DW> In the WRITE# case, Q$ will contain:
DW> Testing, testing
DW> The PRINT# case will make Q$ contain just:
DW> Testing
DW> The comma will have been interpreted as a delimiter.
True, but if you use Print #1 then use Line Input #1 to get the
information, the comma will not come into play. :>
