Using a macro to write to csv file

[#1]

Hi all,

I want to write a macro to write a string out to a csv file.

Ive been looking on the internet and can't find an example of the code needed that works in qlikview.

I can get the string formated correctly in the macro, and I can get it to pop up in a message box, but I can't figure out how to simply write this string out to an externally located csv file. I want to simply append the string onto the end of the csv file (i.e on the next line) each time I run the macro.

Thanks

Dan

Thanks Sunil, but its variables I want to write out rather than a sheet object.

Ive found a solution now:

Const ForAppending = 8 'Setting to append to end of csv file

Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set f = fs.OpenTextFile(f_name,ForAppending,TristateFalse)
f.WriteLine VB_WRITESTRING
f.Close

Seems to work on desktop client, hoping it will work on accesspoint as well.
