File I/O getting information

-----------------------------------

What is it you are trying to achieve?
I want to show the best time


What is the problem you are having?
it shows 0 all the time and the first number is always 0 in the text file


Describe what you have tried to solve this problem
Everything

Post any relevant code (You may choose to attach the file instead of posting the code if it is too long)

Looking at your code makes my eyes hurt. I have posted a guide that should fix your problem temporarily.

Re: File I/O getting information

-----------------------------------

Every time you open an existing file to write to it, you must include a mod
open : fileNum, "filename", get, mod

This at least partially explains why you are constantly getting zeros in your file.  I don't have time to help you further but at least this is a start.

RE:File I/O getting information

-----------------------------------

well the score from the start is set to 0, and when i do 
seek : rec, 0
it only looks at the first line, but if i do
seek: rec, 1
it give an error of eof
i know why that is but i dont know how to solve it
the reason that it gives me the error is because there is nothing on the second line, unless i start the game then there is score on the second line

and when i do mod,rec i get 0 on the first line and another 0 on the second

Can anyone HELP ME!!?!?

RE:File I/O getting information

-----------------------------------

it is seeking to the third spot in the file 

seek :fn, 0 is the first character 

so 

seek :fn, 2 is the third

This doesn't have anything to do with your problem, but, from a quick glance at your code I can tell that [url=http://compsci.ca/v3/viewtopic.php?t=14333]arrays will make your life quite a bit easier.

Re: File I/O getting information

-----------------------------------

if i do this
 
 seek : rec, 1
 get : rec, best
 locate (3, maxcol - 11)
 put "Best: ", best


then the score is save on the third line of the text file, i just want it to be saved on the first line, but if i do
 
 seek : rec, 0
 get : rec, best
 locate (3, maxcol - 11)
 put "Best: ", best

the score is save on the second line
