' Get a free file number
FileNum = FreeFile
' Create Test.txt
Open App.Path & "Test.txt" For Output As FileNum
' Write the contents of TextBox1 to Test.txt
Print #FileNum, TextBox1.Text
' Close the file
Close FileNum

Is there a way to specify where the file goes when it is outputed?
and is it possible to add to that file instead of just overwriting them content?
