Syntax
object.Write(string)

The Write method syntax has these parts:

Part Description
object Required. Always the name of a TextStream object.
string Required. The text you want to write to the file.

Remarks
Specified strings are written to the file with no intervening spaces or characters between each string. Use the WriteLine method to write a newline character or a string that ends with a newline character.

The following example illustrates use of the Write method:

Function WriteToFile
  Const ForReading = 1, ForWriting = 2
  Dim fso, f
  Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
  Set f = fso.OpenTextFile("c:\testfile.txt", ForWriting, True)
  f.Write "Hello world!" 
  Set f = fso.OpenTextFile("c:\testfile.txt", ForReading)
  WriteToFile =  f.ReadLine
End Function
