How to open a text file on the web server and write data into this file (Using TextStream)

How to open a text file on the web server and write data into this file (Using TextStream)

S T E P - 1

- We need to use the FileSystemObject object:

<%

Const ForReading = 1, ForAppending = 8 'Set the iomode

Dim fSys, objF, objText

Set fSys = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

%>

S T E P - 2

- We can use the server.mappath(".") to get the webserver's current folder.

- After that, use the GetFile method to get a File Object.

<%

Set objF = fSys.GetFile(server.mappath(".") & "\myFile.txt")

Set objText = objF.OpenAsTextStream(ForAppending, 0)

'0 = Using ASCII format

'-1 = Using Unicode format

'-2 = Using system default format

objText.writeLine("Hello Word")

objText.Close

Set objF = Nothing

Set fSys = Nothing

%>
