Passage to the line

[honky]

Good morning,
Var $ = "name"

I would like to record

open "données.txt" for append as #g

print #g, var$;"   "; date$
But the date is on the next line.
How to avoid?

I tried Var$ = Var$+"    "+Date$

print #g, var$

It's the same.
Thank you for.

you need to treat date like a function with parenthesis, plus for some reason append was adding blank line maybe my mistake but this works
open "dons.txt" for append as #g
V$ = "name "+Date$("yyyy/mm/dd") 'date is function needs () at least
print #g, V$
close #g

open "dons.txt" for input as #g
while eof(#g) = 0
   input #g, var$
   if var$ <> "" then print var$ : exit while
wend
close #g


b = b + ...

date$ is a string and it's calculated elsewhere with:

   mois$ = "Jan Fév Mar Avr Mai Jun Jui Aou Sep Oct Nov Déc"
   today$ = date$("mm/dd/yyyy")
   j = date$(today$)
   jsem$ = word$("Mar Mer Jeu x Ven Sam x Dim Lun",int((j/7-int(j/7))*10)+1)
   date$ = jsem$+" "+mid$(today$,4,2)+" "+word$(mois$, val(today$))


If I put: print#g, var$;"    "; "HHH"

It's same

this is working as expected for me
open "dons.txt" for append as #g
v$ = "name"
print #g, v$;" ";date$()
close #g

open "dons.txt" for input as #g
while eof(#g) = 0
   input #g, var$
   if var$ <> "" then print var$ : exit while
wend
close #g






!!! make sure you delete the old test .txt file first or you will be showing only the first line of file over and over meanwhile your last printed line to file wont show!!!

b = b + ...

It's the same probably because you are reading the first line over and over, remember append adds to the file without deleting the previous lines.

so delete the file before retesting with append or just use for input instead which overwrites the file each time.

honky,
please write what you got vs. what you want.
Because "It's same" does not tell me a thing.

But I could do some guessing

print #g, var$;" "; date$
But the date is on the next line.

Could new line be inside var$ variable? (as from reading from texteditor)
try to change to
print #g,print trim$(var$);"   "; date$

[honky]

Var $ comes from a textbox.
Your: print #g, print trim$(var $);" "; Date$ works very well, thank you tsh73.
