You have to OPEN a file and WRITE or PRINT the word to the file.

To read the file you need to OPEN the filename and INPUT the word(s) from the file.

Reading a line from a file and comparing.

2017-06-17T15:44:46-05:00

I'm working on an operating environment in QuickBasic 4.5.

I need help loading saving and loading from a line of code in a file like example.sys for a password system.

Here's what I have the code as so far:

Code:

...SETPASS:CLSINPUT "Enter Password you want to set: ",setpass$INPUT "Confirm: ",confirmpass$IF confirmpass$ = setpass$ THEN password$ = setpass$ ELSE PRINT "Passwords not identical!":SLEEP 2:GOTO SETPASS(Code that saves line of code to file)...

After reboot:

Code:

PASSWORD:CLS(Code that sets the value of password$ from a specific line of code.)INPUT "Enter Password: ",passinput$IF passinput$ = password$ THEN GOTO DESKTOP ELSE PRINT "Wrong Password!":SLEEP 3:GOTO PASSWORD

Basically, how would I store a value onto a file and be able to access it later?
