Sample CW "Pseudo Notepad" uploaded/written by Jeff Slarve (jeff@jssoftware.com) Here is a very basic example of how to quickly open text files and save them. Since the Clarion text control is usually unable to display more than 24000 characters or so, it is limited to opening 24000 bytes of the file. So be carefull not to save the file over it's original, if the file was large :-) There is no 'changed' flag checking to check if the file has changed, but that can be easily implemented. Enjoy!
