| Syntax | FileWriteFile FileNameExpression, MemoItem |
| Action | [Statement] Writes a file into from an Equinox memo. |
| Scope | Usable anywhere |
| Notes | This statement writes all the data, unformatted, from the item specified in the MemoItem parameter into the filename specified in FileNameExpression. In order to write data to the server, prepend "SERVER:" (in any case) to the FileNameExpression. This prefix is ignored by the single user version. If the path specification is a relative one, it will start from the program directory - the Eqserver.exe directory for server files, and the Equinox.exe or Equinet.exe directory for everything else. The system workarea SysError is set to 1 if an error occurs, otherwise zero. |
