writing to a csv or fixed format text file.

[Guest]

Hi,

I have some data that I want to write to either a fixed width text file, or
to a csv file. (User selectable)

I can google and see heaps of good code on how to read a csv or fixed width
file, but nothing on writing.

Can anybody point me in the write direction on this.

Thanks

Have you looked at StreamWriter?

I have had a look at it, and can see how to write a string to the file.

Is there a way to created the fixed format string and then write to the file
via the streamwriter ?

String.Format could be what you're after:
