REMARKS |
* For an example refer to the page under Reading Text Files * The "number" can be any numeric expression. * This function can only be used with files opened with either Sequential/Input or Binary access. * With files opened for binary access, an attempt to read through the file using this function until EOF returns True, will generate an error. * You can use the CLOSE statement to close a text file. * You can use the LINE INPUT statement to reads a single line from an Open sequential file and assigns it to a string. * You can use the OPEN statement to open a text file. * You can use the INPUT Statement to read data from a file and assigns the data to a list of variables (Long). * You can use the INPUTB function that is used with byte data. * You can use the INPUT$ function to return a String data type instead of a Variant data type. * You can use the INPUTB$ function to return a String data type instead of a Variant data type. * You can use the PRINT statement to write data to a file opened with Sequential access (display-formatted). * You can use the PUT statement to write data from a record into a text file. * The equivalent .NET function is Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileSystem.Input * This function is not available in Access. * For the Microsoft documentation refer to learn.microsoft.com |
