WriteFile used to replace everything with the inputed text, but now it only adds it to the beginning. How can I delete some text in a text file?
I'm basically trying to modify a specific line, where as the the line thats being edited doesn't matter what line it ends up on...
I used to have:
File := XSplit(ReadFile('CashSpot.txt'),chr(13) + chr(10));
Spot := -1;
i := 1;
while (i <> Spot) and (i <= GetArrayLength(File) - 1) do begin
if Copy(File[i],1,Length(IDtoName(ID))) = IDtoName(ID) then Spot := i;
if i <> Spot then i := i + 1;
end;
if Spot <> -1 then begin
WriteFile('CashSpot.txt','');
for i := 0 to GetArrayLength(File) - 1 do begin
if (i < Spot) then WriteLnFile('CashSpot.txt',File[i]);
if (i > Spot) then WriteLnFile('CashSpot.txt',File[i - 1]);
end;
end;
WriteLnFile('CashSpot.txt',IDtoName(ID) + 'Æ' + EndText);
But it no longer clears the file
Is there any way at all to delete / modify text in a file?
NOTE: im using the 2.6.1 dedicated server pre-release for this
